to repacking of fresh grease etc. But i done over 500 miles since the new axel oil seal and swivel joint seal fitted. The bearings were all fine and did not need a change but the axel oil seal was perished and the big swivel ball seal looked a bit passed it, i know its only a dust seal but it all helps i guess. The half shaft had dents and i was was told the small axel oil seal would not sit right or would not last and due to this oil could seep thorugh until i get hold of a new half shaft, in the mean time it could last weeks, months or year. After 500 odd miles i noticed looking under the car which looked to be oil and grease but more looking like oill, it is not smelly or very runny like before but just a slight bit which forms after every drive. I could be overlooking the situation but when i look at the other swivel ball its bone dry. Theres some slight pitting on the ball which had the leak but nothing out of place. I been using the car with them 500 miles in 2wd and not used 4wd so of course the front axel was not rotateing. Which is handy at the min as i dont want other problems to apear. I will monitor the situation but of course like anybody would i want a permanent fix. I guess ill go along
