    When I changed mine to blue I bought red LEDs, I went back and forth between red and blue for about a week and decided blue. While I did all of mine myself it was a time consuming process. I really like the blue and even during they day the gauges still have blue back lighting.

    Did some heavy offroading over the weekend. Crawled under to check my new Asfir aluminum skid. All good there but this is the driver’s side where the axle meets the diff. The diff seal? Doesn’t look like axle grease.

    That is indeed the axle seal. Good news is that it is a cheap part and easy to replace. There are several good youtube vids out there on how to replace this.

    Tips on properly seating it to avoid leaks would be appreciated.

    I used a Harbor Freight seal puller to yank the old one out, then pressed the new seal in with my fingers, and used a brass punch to seat it in the rest of the way. If I remember correctly, you just seat it flush with the outer diff housing. Its been a while since I last replaced one, so I apologize if any of my information is incorrect.

    $350 for the labor. I didnt think that was too bad. I paid $580 for the locker so less than a grand all said and done.
