I drive an 03 evo and i need a little help. Recently I saw that i had a small leak either from my t-case or my axles. I got both my o-rings from the t-case replaced and both front axle seals but something is still leaking. :bigtdown:

It looks as if its leaking from my driver side axle and the fluid thats leaking seems to be Redline MT90.

Would anyone have any idea what is can be? Also, would anyone locally be willing to look at it and possibly fix the problem?

Thanks!

just because it’s been replaced doesn’t mean that it seals well. installation is important for the seal to be correct for axles

Was it overfilled as well? Not that it is the reason why its leaking but I would just be sure since it will be back in to be resealed…
