Replaced Rear Differential Seal - Still leaking!!! 200 1991

All,

I replaced the rear differential seal this past weekend as it was seeping very badly.

I removed all of the gasket material and cleaned both mating surfaces and then reinstalled everything with a brand new Volvo gasket.

I looked under the car today and it is leaking once again on the drivers side near the top of the pumpkin. the exact same place.

I tightened the bolts a little more in hopes that this will fix the issue and I also checked to see that I have a clear passage way coming out of my rubber tube on top of the rear axle.

Any thoughts as to what to do next if this does not fix the issue short of replacing the seal yet again????

UGH!!! This has been the summer from car repair hell. I'd like to catch just one break, please!!!

End of rant!

Matt
