Looking for a local shop
Hello,
Im in the Youngstown/Warren area in north eastern Ohio. I noticed while inspecting the brakes on my 74 that the differential is leaking. I believe its coming from the passenger side yoke seal and possibly the main gasket on the cover. The seals have probably dried up and cracked, the car was not driven alot before I took ownership. Its not dripping or leaving a puddle on the ground but the differential case looks wet from oil. I am guessing it starts to leak once the diff warms up while driving. Im some what mechanical but I feel this job is out of my expertise to do on my own. Does anyone know of a reputable shop in my area?
Thanks,
