ugh it's so frustrating. I would take it apart again but I spent a ton of money on oil and that limited slip crap for the rear

could your new front bumper be throwing the weight off from the rear? :jest:

Are you using good seals? Where are you getting them from?

vatozone seal. used the same brand as the pinion seal and that one is holding up just fine. do you think it's just a bad seal?

Well as an example, I never could get my axles to seal using the Moser supplied seals, so I switched to napa seals and they sealed great. Those were axle seals on a moser 9".
