Mike,
I took a leak at your look... Uh took a look at your leak. Its appears to
me to be a classic rear pinion seal leak. This is a bitch to fix yourself
due to the massive torque on the nut that holds the yoke on. also on some
rear ends (not sure about your Daks) the torque on the nut is super critical
since it mashes down a crush sleeve while being tightened and is responsible
for the set up of your ring and pinion gears. Screw that up and youve got a
bigger problem than you already have!! I had my 65 baccarudas pinion seal
replaced for $80.00 (they charged extra due to the oneness of the nut and
pinion gear shaft...) Your dak should cost the same or less!

Could someone take a look at my leak and tell me what they think. I
sure would appreciate it. Thanks.
