Could be. I've mentioned it to the Workshop manager, but still reckons it is the ball joint. It may be both ! as there is an amount of grease plus clear dripping oil.
He'll have a look at it when he gets it booked in in a couple of days.
I presume this will still be ok to drive unless it started really gushing.

Thanks for the reply

Cheers thanks for reply.

 

Oil still 'oozing' from front drive shaft and pooling on axel 'C' where lower ball joint is situated.
Shopmanager took your advise 'via me' and acquired axel seal.
Getting done tomorrow, (hopefully)
Lower ball joint most likely OK, but I thinks he's ordered one of those as well.
Must have been damaged when the Ball Joints were replaced.

Most greatful for all your educated thoughts /opinions / facts to an thirsty for knowledge first Jeeper... keep it coming.

Thanks
