Looks like it might be the intermediate shaft o-rings on the Transfer box. Mine used to be like that, the oil goes everywhere!
There is a hole in the casting on the gearbox which oil that leaks between Transfer and Main Box seals can escape though which is on the O/S bottom of the casting. Steve 02' 110 TD5 Double Cab Rebuild Thread |

yep its that hole, shown, that the oil is coming out of. i am pretty certain its EP90 so from the T box. but could be either g or t in there. am going to check level in T box and go from there. Cheers

Ah yes, my apologies. I hadn't registered that it was an 6spd box rather than the R380 i am used to!

wasnt meant to criticise, thank you for point out, just wondering if i drop the t box or take the whole lot out (if it gbox seal easier probably) and then do the clutch too. Cheers

drop the t box fix seals and fresh oil and see how it goes for me
becoming more common to leak from here as the boxes get older. |

Not ever having seen one, but does the Ashcroft output shaft conversion 'leak' oil to enable its own lubrication? Although that does look like a lot of oil!
The favourite cross shaft leak - is it outside of the output shaft housing, or could it be leaking inside of the housing`/ `the O rings are peanuts so if you're going to drop the box to do the seal, might be worth doing the o rings at the same time. Keith |

ashcroft kit uses oil from gbox to lubricate it yes. it uses a t box seal from memory too.
i reckon its EP90 from t box leaking past input seal into the intermediate housing. as darren says got to be t box off first and go from there i reckon. Cheers James 110 2012 XS Utility 130 2011 M57 bespoke Camper 90 2010 Hardtop 90 M57 1988 Hardtop |

I think I used 4 lengths of m10 studding to put the transfer box back on with to avoid damaging the seal - its a heavy lump balanced on a jack
Best of luck! |

The acid test is does it smell of EP or of the gear oil from the G box?
The article on Ashcroft's site doesn't specify a different seal so having that one and the common ICV100000 for the T box as it's out might not be bad idea. The MT82 output seal is a Lr058800 or... if you want genuine but not £30 LR genuine then The ford number is 1476743 is about £10 less for the same seal just not in LR packaging.  Also can be found on Fb, Ytube, Insta & Twitter @4WDSouthwest |

cheers, yes have the T box seals on order and was just about to google the Ford number for the gbox output, thank you for the timely link. £20 ish from ebay for gen ford.
smells and feels like EP90 to me. Cheers James 110 2012 XS Utility 130 2011 M57 bespoke Camper 90 2010 Hardtop 90 M57 1988 Hardtop |

Hi James,
let me know when the transfer case is off if its the output shaft kit, some of the early ones leaked as there was little clearance between the ali collar and the inner shaft, In some cases this clearance is not enough as I naively though the input gear would be directly inline with the MT82 output shaft, often its not.

gbox oil it turned out to be. i seem lucky though in that the gbox and t box do line up so not coming from Daves kit. Cheers
