I recently picked up a bx24 with 500 hours. I noticed a slow drip from where the driveline connects to the front diff. I changed out the axle fluid wth gear oil but it is still leaking. Messicks shows the oil seal as the last part on the parts diagram. Is it as simple as removing driveline and pulling the seal? I have found quite a bit of info axle seals on the hubs but nothing from the drive. I’m going to order a service manual also. Thanks in advance

Yes simple to do. Pull off the front drive shaft,remove the plastic guard then the seal will be easier to access. Remove the seal [I usually punch a small hole into the seal and use a screw threaded into the hole.then pull on the screw with vice grips and pull the seal out.] it won't leak to much oil out when the seal is out. Push/tap in the new seal carefully/as evenly as possible and reinstall drive shaft etc: Lastly top up the oil. Good to go.
