Anyone know of known issues w/ the '02 2500HD 2WD rear axle seals? My Dad is getting ready to have a third seal replaced in 91K miles before the warranty expires. The first went around 50K miles, the second around 62K miles and now the third! I had one go on my first '02 2500HD inside of 15K miles, but have been fortunate on my current 2500HD 4WD at 41K miles w/ no issues with 'em thus far.
What is required in pulling the 2WD axle? Does the diff have to be opened and a lock ring pulled or do you just remove the bolts from the plate and pull it? This obviously for future knowledge once the warranty expires in a few weeks.
Thanks, Kevin
