Transfer box leaking.

Hope the picture shows properly. My transfer box is leaking from the area just above the filler hole. Think this is the end of the intermediate shaft?! Any help would be much appreciated towards a fix for this problem.

Same with mine (although it was leaking at the other end of the shaft)

PITA to take the transfer box off for a 2 pence seal though.

Did mine while I had the box out to do the clutch.

Those of you who have done this, can you tell me how you went about setting correct bearing preload for the intermediate gear?

Piece of string, spring balance and some dodgy maths. There’s a Bearmach video on YouTube that demonstrates it much better than I could explain it. 2011 Defender DCPU 2.2 - https://www.defender2.net/forum/topic30623.html
