Yeah but Since I am going off road regularly and the diffs are going underwater alot... I thought a regular Oil change on the diff would have been the smart thing to do.. |

have a look at the top of the diff, you will see a hose that goes up above the fuel tank, that is the breather hose, it stops any water being sucked in to the diff, especially seeing you have new genuine seals either side on the axles you have nothing to worry about, I would only be worried if you have the entire diff submerged for long periods at best take the filler plug out of the back of the diff and stick your finger in, if its milky replace it, if its clear keep on plugging |
