leaking rear axle seal

[JoeD]

I just noticed the rear axle is leaking on my bobbed M35A3. I only drive my deuce less than 200 miles a year. Can I get by with just letting it leak or is it imperative I replace the bearing/seal? I know the part is not inexpensive and funds are limited in retirement.
if I have to replace, would it be just the outer, or both outer and inner?
thanks

If you let it leak you will end up with oil soaked brake shoes (that will need to be replaced) and still have to fix the seals.
Do the inner and outer seals .

Sounds like good advice. Since the CTIS is already disconnected i though i would get the Bearing conversion from Memphis Equipment. The TM for the A3 bearing/seal replacement seems a little light. Would i use the TM for the A2? seems more detailed
