My axle seals started leaking and I was wondering if the Alloy USA seal will work to keep the oil in or should I just replace the regular seals?

I though those alloy USA seals are meant to keep junk Out not to keep oil in. Think about all the junk that might be collected in the axle tubes. Do you want the oil to slosh around in the tubes then back into the differential?

fix the problem, don't try to put a bandaid on it. It's not that hard to do, look in the FAQ/Writeups section i did a writeup on it. If you need any further info feel free to PM me.
