I recently installed a 3.09 LSD on my Challenger R/T recently. For some reason its leaking has anyone had any experience with this type of thing ?

Need a better picture to see the source of the leak. Is it coming from the axle seals? Did you happen to hit the seals with the axle shafts when you were installing?

I think I did bump them with the axle shafts. Would a light bump cause it to leak ?

Yep. There is an axle seal saver special tool for those. A shield that goes around it while you slide the axle in.

If you do it without that, you have to be reeeaallly careful. Sh#t happens

Ahhhh thank you. I'll probably buy it so I can replace the seals and install the half shafts
