I got a drivers side axle leak,I know I have read this fix is a pain in the butt,but has anyone done them and if so any tricks I should know about?

 

Biggest trick is to wait if there has been any front end work done recently or the differental is over filled to more than 3/4" below the fill hole. Most leaks will stop by 500 miles or so after the work has been done or after the the fluid is at the correct level.

Here's a recent thread that should help https://www.dieseltruckresource.com/...threadid=65667

 

thanks Infidel,no work for about 20-25k miles or fluid change or adding

 

Seals are shot. Mine is doing the same thing. Looks like quite a job. Good luck.

Might want to check with your dealer and see what they want to do the seals.
It used to be rated at $125, well worth it.
