I recently had the rear axle seals & rear axle lubricant (MC 75w140 synthetic) replaced on my wife's '97 Expedition with 114k miles. The shop that did the work has done work for me in the past & I trust that they did the job right. But for some reason, the pass. side axle seal that was leaking still seems to be leaking (just a little).
Would it be an awful thing to add a little Lucas Heavy Duty oil stabilizer to the gear oil to try & slow/stop the leak? The Lucas bottle says it can help to stop leaks in rear ends. I have access to a boatload of this stuff, at no cost to me. What say the BITOGers?
