Now that I've installed a drain plug on my '93 F250's Dana 50 front diff, and filled it with the proper amount of gear oil, it's started to leak at the pinion seal. I have a few questions:
I'll have the driveshafts down soon to rebuild the transfer case, so that'd be a perfect time to do this seal as well.
thanks

- Does this pinion have a crush sleeve or is there a shim pack so I don't have to worry about preload?
- Can someone verify that the correct pinion seal is National 5778?
- Should I go ahead and order a Speedi-Sleeve, assuming that the reason it started leaking is wear on the shaft as well as the seal itself?
I'll have the driveshafts down soon to rebuild the transfer case, so that'd be a perfect time to do this seal as well.
