I just assembled the rearend for my A pickup. I had purchased a rebuilt
third member with new gears with no warranty. The problem appears to be
oil leaking around the pinion nut through the spline in the center of the yoke. The pumpkin does look to be assembled with new parts. It's my understanding if I remove the nut and yoke to check the seal, I'll have to have the gear lash reset because of the crush washer. I really don't want to tear it all apart.
Would a few miles on it seat the seal? (Wishfull thinking)
Any ideas or suggestions or cures would be helpfull and much appreciated!
Thanks! Joe
