No jokes please.
I had my gears installed last spring. Since then, I have had it back to the shop 3 times for a small leak of oil from the rear end. Each time I've taken it back, they said it was the pinion seal. Now it's leaking again!
Anybody know what might be causing this? I believe them that the leak is at the pinion seal, but why would it keep developing a new leak each time they replace it or reseat it?

I have had this happen once when the gears were replaced. I do not realy know why the first seal failed but it did. When the shop took off the yoke they may have dropped it and bent the sheild that protects the seal from damage. also If the vent for the rear got pluged the rear will build presure and push the oil out the seal. Third the shop may not have lubed the seal so it might of burned up before it has a chance to recieve oil.
