[QUOTE="SkooterG, post: 1451893, member: 118"] Yes, the shaft seal is fine. The leak is coming from the coupler. I believe that has one oil seal and one O-ring in there. My limited knowledge tells me that is much bigger deal to R&R. Requiring a very special tool, or socket. And knowledge how to put it all back again properly (adjusting gear lash?). So, you would have cost of parts (not too bad), time to get them (?), but most importantly finding a shop that would have the proper tools and do the work. These things almost never leak so finding a shop that has ever had one apart would not be likely. As for boogers...... No. At least, not yet......... [/QUOTE]
