Axle seals

[Stephen Hutchings <hutching@the-wire.com>]

I've had a problem with the left rear axle seal (BJ8)...I'll replace 
the seal and after a year or so it will suddenly start to leak. My 
replacement on the right side is fine after several years, which 
makes me think that the axle shaft is the problem. I seem to remember 
someone else having the same problem, but I can't remember how it was 
resolved. Any ideas? I'm tired of that particular little job.
