    I recently did the ecgs solid bearing replacement, i did replace the axle seal while i was in there but there is now a leak. There is a hole in the inner cv dust shield, can it even leak from there?

    CVC is grease, not oil. Did you pre-lube the seal before the axel install?

    Well turns out if you install the seal backwards it doesn't seal.
