i got the drive in the shop and pressufre tested it at several pressures and pressure has held at each level.
what would you do? change out the seals in the input shaft or chalk it up to an anomoly and check it again next year?

if there is any rust on your u-joints, then you need to address that, replace the input shaft seal and a few other bits in the upper.

did you put a vacuum on the drive per the manual?
