Information needed regarding rear axle

Disco_Stu:
Now I think about it, it probably is the swapped hub thats leaking, I've got some photos somwhere so I'll have to check which way the diff was pointing when I worked on it to be sure (it was off the car).

It sounds like I'm going to have to strip and and replace the seal or seals and see if that works. Its a 92 200 w/o ABS so that has both if I'm reading correctly.
Good job they're only £3 each :) and all the wading I've been doing I sohould probably grease the bearings anyway.

Thanks for the advice mate.

Stu.

You should have single peice half shafts then and 2 seals within the hub itself.  At least they are easy to change ;)  If you have never done it I'd also check the axle breather, the oil vapour and a littl ebit of muck is allit takes to clog the thing.
