Re: Plugged rear diff vent causing rear seal leak?
I have had the same experience with a plugged breather tube. Yes, it will cause the seals to leak as the rear end heats up and pressurizes. Sadly, I think my old seal was fine, if I had only figured out the vent beforehand. Good luck with your repair.
