just replaced the pinion seal thinking that would solve my leak....im guessing now its the pinion bearing because fluid is poring out of it now....i filled it up to the check hole with fluid so im guessing that was what caused such a bad leak.....heres my question now.....i need to drive the car about 70 miles to get it to the shop that will fix it.....since all the fluid has probably run out that was above the seal line will i have enough fluid in the bottom of the pinion seal line to allow me to drive it that far?
