    Pinion seal seeping, been seeping for a while but wasn't sure where it was coming from exactly, it's getting to the point the flange is wet and it's obvious. No drips yet. So gay.

    Guess I should probably email Chase at ECGS. This diff is less than a year old, less than 10k miles. Not really sure what they'll do. Send me a seal? I just wonder the cause. Hopefully just a shitty install, I do think it's been seeping since I got it. Just hoping it's not the pinion shaft surface or something else. No play and my driveshaft vibrates VERY little, and only at a couple speeds.

    Although I have zero experience with ECGS, I've heard nothing but great thing about their customer service. Still sucks to have a leaky diff, but I'm sure they are going to make it right.

    Yeah they were pretty cool when I blew up the first one. Got me a new one for $200 (because it was a stock Toyota side gear) and $200 overnight shipping (needed it NOW). Still I can't see them sending a new diff. I can replace the seal I just worry about the cause.

    IDK... we'll see where I'm at once I get another truck but I'm thinking FJ80(FZJ80) and a 5.9 CTD and sell the Taco. :cool:

    Not a bad deal!

    Wonder what the pliers alone would go for?!

    Yeah yeah! :D

    I do have a bigger crush on Isla Fisher fwiw.

    Who? Isla?

    Everyone knows I have a huge crush on KS. I think I have a bigger crush on Isla maybe. I go back and forth I guess.
