transfer case leaking????
 

So i picked up my car this past monday and it been running perfect couple days ago backing out of my garage i noticed a medium sized black puddle crap on my garage floor its definantly not oil looks like its coming from the trans case or the tranny its a gst awd swap so im thinking something is coming out from one of them any ideas ?? Thanks

Either from the xfer case yolk (out the back where the driveshaft goes into it) or one of the axle seals (on either side).

get it up in the air ASAP before it gets *everywhere* and you cannot figure out where its coming form. If that's already the case, clean the living crap out of it, drive around the block, and then look for the leaky spot.

Also, check to make sure the drain and fill plugs are tight.

Black puddle? Sounds to me like you need a fluid change. Take care of that leak asap or you'll be paying a lot to fix it.

I am going to check it out when i get home i took a quick peek and it looked like there was a mess coming from the passenger side axle but will check everything else i am also forsure changing all fluids for sure after seeing that crap black in my floor

And how hard it it to replace a axle seal ?? Anybody done it before any tricks to doing it ?

Re: transfer case leaking????
 

Yes, RTFM and do it. remove the axle and pry out the seal from the outside, then slap in a new one and re-install. It's not that hard but not a walk in the park.

After looking at it closer when i got home found it was also leaking from the xcase imput seal also so going to have to do that also

I was gonna say, the trans/transfer case interface leak would be the transfer case input shaft seal. Not hard to change at all but you obviously have to pull the transfer case.
