Hello mates!

I have not been too active for the last months, mostly due to the fact that my trol has been running ok, but some days ago I noticed that my rear left axel was leaking diff oil. I runned to Nissan to buy the original seals, it uses two by the way. Well, my mech changed the whole thing and I still find a lot of oil coming out from the drum, luckily the shoes are not wet with oil yet but I don't know what else to do, we even fixed the axel since the mech said it was a tad worned out, they add very little steel and then reduced it to less than a mm. So the seal is not working too tight. Mine is a 1996 Y60 or GQ trol.
Any help or idea is most welcome. :1087:

Gday mate, might be an obvious question but could it be brake fluid?
Or maybe the new seal isn't fitting properly over the area on the axle that was modified?
Or could the new seals have been damaged when refitting the axle?
