Urgent - driveshaft oil seal leaking?

[rd070707]

Hi just got my hub changed and refilled the gear oil and now there's a wee leak from the driveshaft were it enters the box. I have a pic here, is it a case that i havent pushed the shaft in far enough or is the seal shot? Ie I must have knocked it ?

Just replace seal they go after few times pullin shafts in an out

Anyone know if that pic looks like its in far enough ?

for future reference it was the oil seal gone, too much putting it in and out buggered it, its best to have a second set of hands to locate it perfectly

You can sometimes nick the seals with the end of the driveshaft. Just take extra caution when going in or you end up with a split rubber
