Hiya,

Not sure if this will help but I have recently had a leak on my power steering and front diff, as a quick solution there are products on the market which i have used and stopped my leaks, on ebay there is a Lucas oil that you can put in gearboxes, engines etc which contain a mineral that penetrates the seals and small cracks and stops the leak, whilst also (it claims?) will be better than just normal oil. My power steering fluid was replaced with a brand bought from a moto-bits kind of place and its made by Comma, this has also worked andstopped the leak. Not sure how long a solution it will be but i had to do something for a quick fix, had both in for about a month and all seems fine, STP and most large well known manufacturers do similar products

Try to find where it's leaking from. Front and rear outpiy shaft seals easy to fix, cleaning breather also easy job but replacing seal / o-ring and more on intermediate shaft is much more work => remove complete unit and strip. Check this post: LT230 Transfer Box rebuild
