Hi,
I have got ATF (red) like a slow bleeding from the guts, dripping from the gearbox, it seems to have got worse over recent months since nearly everything leaks on my LR90.
Doesn't seem to be running out from the bell housing bottom bolt hole, no that's more like engine oil, but could be a mixture with ATF, but hard to tell where the gearbox is leaking, as I'll clean it off then check it after driving, the underside of the box
is usually wet again.
Can I replace the rear output shaft seal without dismounting the transfer case? Just accessing it through the open port after removing the p.t.o. plate and gear off the shaft?
Or is it transfer box off, to replace the rear seal? I guess the gearbox must be dismounted from the bell housing in order to access the front seal if it's that on that needs replacing..
I guessed that I may have to look at replacing the gearbox sooner or later, as I've been warned that a disco 300tdi engine tends to "finish off" an old LT77.
