One of the seals in my 3.27 Camaro diff is leaking at the axle. I have a new seal inbound from Greg at Pace. Any advice or trickes of the trade would be appreciated.

Wish I could help here, but I got nothing. Good Luck!

Are the Axel Seals the little rings that go on the diff before you put the axel back in? If so, I replaced those when we did the swap.

The seals are the rubber lipped rings that press into the large opening in the diff where the axles slide in.

Ok, that is what I tried to explain in my last post, you said it much better :)

We replaced those when we did the swap. Did you replace yours then too, or reuse the ones you had?

We just kept the ones that were in the diff already. We did 2 diffs that day, both used. so far 3 or the 4 seals seem to be working just fine. Just my bad luck I guess.
