Axle oil leak Toyota 60's series
Posted: Sat Aug 13, 2005 8:52 pm
Hi, Today I noticed a minor oil leak on the rear axle, right handside.
Vehicle is Toyota 60's series, Landcruiser 1984, done 306000 km
1. It is still safe for me to drive my truck.
2. What is generally the cause of this oil leak, bad seal inside axle??
3. It is going to be expensive to have it fix?

definatly diff oil or is it possibly brake fluid? comming out the bottom of the drum?? if its diff oil, then your in for a seal, bout $20 for the seal(guessing) and labour of about(if its full floater diff,should be)1hr... are you mech minded or going to get a shop to do it?? if you want full info on doing the job yourself sing out and theres about 500 people here to help
