Oil drip on handbrake drum
Ive noticed a slight oil drip on the handbrake drum and staining around the end of the transfer box. The handbrake works fine.

I have read there was a recall on this but wondered what the job entails and what parts are required. Id rather do this myself tbf.

Just had a go at this and on removal of the handbrake drum found its bone dry inside.

Assuming the seal kit mentioned here isnt leaking I replaced the drum and reconnected the prop.

So thing is, should I have replaced the seal or is it leaking from a different area?

BTW if you are going to do this make sure you have some new 9/16 nyloc nuts ready because the old ones are a b*gg*r to get off and will be rounded.

Sorry yes of course 3/8" UNF. I used a 9/16 spanner and that was in my head Rolling Eyes

Perhaps look at the intermediate shaft seal? It is on the front of the T/box.
I too had a leaking T/box that was dripping onto the handbrake drum, but not inside.
It was a box out job and ended up replacing the intermediate shaft also... Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.
