The research ive done seems to say that the rear seal on the nv5600 is leaking. Where is the best place to get a seal and is there any seals on the transfer case that i should do since it will be off? The trans was rebuilt less than 20k miles ago so seems weird that its leaking that soon. Here is a pic of where the leak is coming from and it is yellow in color and i dont mean the yellow paint lol. Cant see the oil in the picture.

Want to make sure i get the right seals that will fix the problem. Thanks

Order seals from Rock Auto. They list several brands of seals and cheaper than auto zone, orealys, napa. Good National/fed mogol, SKF , etc seals. I bought and had shipped 3 seals for my old truck less $ than local parts places.First time ive ordered from them. Making a list for my next order :thumb1:Rock Auto site is good reference for getting correct part numbers too if you do buy at local parts store

If I remember correctly its been a few years since I have split one but there is not a seal on the tranny output shaft,I think there are two back to back on the t-case coupler shaft one faces inward to keep t-case oil in and the second one backwards to keep tranny oil out of t-case and there is just a gasket between the t-case and tranny.I am abit fuzzy like I say but I do not remember a seal on the tranny.:think:

From the searches ive been doing there is a seal on the output shaft of the trans.

No big deal either way. It is a simple 10 dollar lip seal and it is only about a 2-3 hour job to replace.
