If that is damaged or is worn then a speedy- sleeve might help. Also possible is I have seen leaks from the behind the pinnion nut...oil migrates up the shaft past the splines and out from behind the nut and washer...assembling with a little silicone helps this. Did you get the flange back on in the same attitude as it was before dis-assembly....in other words did you mark the flange and shaft and tighten the nut to the same spot....this is what sets the pinnion pre-load and depth<o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:36.0pt'><br clear=all><o:p></o:p></p><div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:36.0pt'>Chip Collingwood<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:36.0pt'><a href="http://theukmotorsports.com/" target="_blank">theukmotorsports.com</a><o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:36.0pt'>(804) 564-1839<o:p></o:p></p></div></div></div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:36.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:36.0pt'>On Mon, Jun 8, 2015 at 11:11 AM, Scott Janzen <<a href="mailto:sjanzen@me.com" target="_blank">sjanzen@me.com</a>> wrote:<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:36.0pt'>I had a leaky pinion seal on the GT6 differential, and figured I had remedied it by putting in a new seal and a speedi-sleeve this winter.
