Is it leaking that bad? I was thinking that maybe it could take a while to become friends with the pinion shaft. I know that my car sat so much by the O.O. that I developed seeps at the stub axle seals because I drove her......but after awhile they stopped..... I know I should have pulled it out & torn it down right away....someday I will.
