#9028, "Axle seal fell out on the track?"


          

Weird thing happened at the track this weekend, toward the end of my 3rd 20min session on the track I heard some grinding in the brakes. Went ahead and ended the session early and pulled back into the pits. When I parked the car transmission fluid was pouring on the ground, it looked like a waterfall coming out of the transmission. After letting the car cool for a while I got under there to take a look and the passenger axle seal had fallen out completely and was just riding on the axle. I ended up getting it replace with a new one and the car made it home fine with no more leaks.

Anyone ever even heard of this seal working its way loose to fall completely out?? That seal was replace earlier this year when the trans was rebuilt. Maybe just a bad seal that was a little to small. I know the one I put back in was a PITA to knock in.
