Phil Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 The nearside swivel seal on my '02 110 is leaking. The fluid coming out seems to be a mix of grease and oil. I assume this means that oil is finding its way from the axle. Is this at all likely, or have my diagnostic skills failed me again? I believe the part number for the swivel seal is FTC3401, is that right? What other parts will I need and what are their numbers? All help gratefully received! Thanks, Phil.

Phil Posted April 7, 2010 Author Share Posted April 7, 2010 Sorry, should have said, I'm 99% confident the swivel housing has only ever had grease put in. Phil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
