Put new oil in and still leaking oil from between sprocket and final drive case. Reading the dis-assembly & assembly instructions there is mention of a special tool Seal Installer IS8966. Possibly the duo cone seals have not seated correctly. Auto mouse clicker murgee registration key.

The tool looks in the pictures like a rim of sorts that is used to seat the seal. Noticed the o ring wants to roll off the retaining rim. I would be interested in suggestions what's used to substitute the special tooling and any other information of relevance to the leak. Make sure the surfaces that the rubber ring on the Duo cone seal rides is free of dirt,wire brush or sand surfaces on final drive case side and sprocket side.Check surface for a crack in final drive case. If you have the alumiun cages that was mentioned earler check for a crack in the cage,and slways install new O rings behind the cage. The tool shown only compresses the rubber ring to install it in the groove.same thing can be done by evenly working the rubber ring in the groove with your fingers.A little liquid soap on the rubber O ring makes it easer to seat the O ring in the groove so that It doesn't twist.

Use their seating tool, the proper lubricant and make sure everything is CLEAN (yes, it is important). Lube the seal faces with pure moly (no fillers) or a light synthetic oil just prior to assembly.
