Dealer now has the parts to replace the leaking seal. This is where the axle shaft attaches into the differential. Leak rate of about 2 drops per day.. jeez...

was covered under the 5/60 warranty.

I believe engine torque might contribute to this issue. Next week I will be installing the STEEDA "red" diff bushings which may help with the axle seal issue. Time will tell.

I just noticed that you have a supercharger.....WOW! Lemmeno if the dealer gives you any grief about doing warranty work on a supercharged car???

No issues. The tech who did the job liked the blower. Curious: is there a TSB for this issue? If yes, do you happen to have a copy or know the number?

There is no TSB on the axles. In order to get an idea of what parts would be involved, the Technician went
on some Ford factory repair website and it mentioned replacing the wheel bearing. Sorry for the confusion.
