HELP! Does anyone know where i can get a new or a replacement diff pinion oil seal?
put the diff oil in last night only to go in the garage tonight to find the exact same oil on the floor underneath the diff, oh bugger!

Presume you have an Escort diff? Try Burton Power if you can't get one locally

yep mk2 escort, cheers i'll have a look

I'm fairly sure I've got a few spare, I'll get back to you.

cheers thanks alot guys

I've done this on a English axle. Burton Power sell it; you'll struggle locally since it is old part that is no longer stocked or else they'll sell [s]me[/s]you the wrong one.

I can tell you how to set the preload plus how to re-use the crush tube - save you £ 15.

im always interested when theres money to be saved, please do carry on.

I've got two here going spare, both brand new, £14.50 from Burton. Make me an offer I can't refuse.

Is it definately coming from the seal(s), only I seem to remember hearing about rusted thru cover plates?
