driveshsft leaking
Hi,
Changing the rear main seal, I took off the drive shaft. There is thick grease on th rear axle where the driveshaft goes. Is this a rear differential? If so, what doe sit do? Also, how do I change the rear diff. seal? There is trans fluid dripping on the driveshaft. Where the driveshaft goes into the tranny, that seal is soft and leaking. Do I simply pull it off and put on a new one? Lastly, Trans is off and engine tilted back a little. It seems th eengine pivoted on the motor mounts. Does this mean I should tighten motor mounts? Lastly, is there a cover over the flywheel? It looks like a cover w/ 4 bolts covering flywheel.
