Picked up my True-Trac'd rear yesterday, and noticed the half-shaft (side-shafts?) seals were leaking when it's tilted on it's side.
Is there any prep for the seals to function correctly (like driving the car to heat them)? I was going to install the rear today, but was reluctant 'cause I have no extra seals to swap in if those are bad.
I know some cars' output shaft seals (transmission) can leak if the car isn't driven for a period of time; I was curious if the same is true for new seals.
