ok,
have had all the bearings replaced in my diff(ae86) and while i was doin that i changed the seal on it too.
now it leaks out of it. and it didnt happen before i rebuilt it. freakin pissin me off since i have changeedd the seal twice.
is there any tricks to puttin the seal in and should i go get a genuine toyota item rather than a local shop's stock.
cheers,
paul

If its the front seal sounds like you either didn't replace the crushable spacer when you did the bearings if it has one or you have over tightened it.
Is it noisier?
