well i just had a look underneath and checked my box levels and my gearbox was overfull (probably cos of the angle the car was at when i filled it up) but my transfer box was empty!! oh dear. it doesn't seem to be coming out of the prop shaft seal. has anyone else had this happen?

On a long hard run, my transfer box oil ends up on the tailgate.[:0]
I have the parts, just not the enthusiasm to do the job.

Its easy to do, just look down the side of the battery onto the top of the box i think, yep any bit of pipe will do, the original bends over onto itself,
