Advice on leaking axle seal replacement and gear install
So I'm installing a 3.73 next week and just this weekend I noticed my rear passenger axle seal is leaking...
So....I'm going replace both seals and the bearings on both sides since I'll have the whole thing apart anyways.
My philosophy always is that if something breaks it should be replaced with something better. You guys have any advice rather than going with stock OEM replacements? Anything else I should consider upgrading while I'm at it?

Im pretty sure the only place you're gonna find new axle seals is at the dealer. I replaced mine and no autopart store carried them at the time. so you're stuck with oem on those. As far as the gear install , just use new bearings , bolts and seal and you should be good.
