Leaky front axle
I recently picked up a very nice open cab CCKW out of Oregon ( thanks Steve) but need to fix the leaking front axle. Who might be selling the seals and gaskets I need? Thanks for the help. Lee in Livermore CA

Hello Scroungerm5,
What axle type does your truck have? Banjo or Split?
Also, where on the axle is the leak at ?
Best Regards...

It is the banjo type, leaking out the backside. I found a parts conversion chart that shows Napa may still have the seals. Thanks for the help

Re: Leaky front axle
Just curious...leaking out the backside
Do you mean leaking out of the back of the axle - as in at the pinion ? (A relatively easy repair.)
Or backside as in at the inside of the brake backing plate at the end on the axle tube(s) ? (Much more involved.)
Best Regards...
