Rear Axle Seal Upgrade

[JFro]

Has anybody found the best rear axle seal replacement or an upgrade?
- 600 miles and I’ve just noticed some leaky seals that need to be please.
- still loving this machine!

Take it to the dealer. It's under warranty.

Hoping for an upgrade from factory.
Doubt they’ll warranty with the aftermarket setup.

The factory seal works just fine. Mine doesn't leak, and it's 3 years old. Some have thousands of miles on theirs and no leaks.

Are you 100% sure it’s the axle leaking and not the brakes? I don’t believe the diffs have gear oil going all the way to the axle ends. That bearing is greased via the zerks on top of the axle tubes back there. So either the axle is leaking and flowing to the bearings and then leaking out of those seals or it’s the brake cylinders leaking.
