Default Axel Seal Repair

Hey guys just wanted to see if anyone has the repair guides to do an Axel Seal on a 4x4 Dodge Cummins. 98.5. If I have to deal with another Haynes or Chilton Manuel Im gonna shoot some one. Suck because I just did em, and when I did my brakes I pulled the axel out, so now it leaking... dammit.

Have you checked the breather tube? I had a pinion shaft leak due to the breather being plugged. I unplugged the breather, and it stopped leaking. I changed the seal afterwards to be safe though.

Mine was plugged in the fitting. I pulled the hose off and blew though it with no problem. A small screwdriver let me know the during was plugged.
