Hey guys just went to take my zook out and found a small puddel of oil under my right hand rear wheel, smells like diff oil and its got abit of grey in it so im thinking it is 
Its leaking on both sides from the wheels, well some oil is sitting in the rim on each side I went up and down the drive way and everything runs fine, so again im thinking diff seals or something What do you guys think and how should i go about fixing the bloody thing Cheers guys |

EDIT: what parts will i be needing ?? does any one have part numbers ?? step 1: jack rear diff up put stands under diff step 2: remove wheels and drums with rattel gun step 3: clamp flexie brake line and remove brake line to w/cylinders step 4: remove hand brake cabel, theres a littel pin that holds it there step 5: undo 4 bolts on backing plate step 6: put drum on backwords and yank it had till the axels come out step 7: get seal puller or screw driver and pop seals out step 8: put new seal in with a small hammer you can also yous the old seal to tap on to push the new seal it with. the seals are located in the end of the housing make shour you dont score the race which the seal sits in

youll need new brake shoes cause the oil stuffs em and if you are replacing shoes you should do cylinders to cause they will just leak when you push em back in and if you are doing cylinders they will need a bleed so you may as well flush the brakes cause it probably hasnt been done in years see how the little things become a big job

You didn't buy a Suzuki, you got a hobby!!!!! 
EDIT: * Please note that price's may vary from store to store. |
