I'm replacing u-joints, rear suspension bushings and differential mounts 
in my 75 TR6 w/51,000 miles and have the following questions about the 
differential while it's out:

The differential leaks at each axle flange, how much of a hassle is it to 
replace the oil seals?

I have a non-leaking spare diff from a 70/71. Can this be swapped as an 
alternative? This diff also seems to have less gear noise when the axle 
shafts are rotated by hand, and it turns more freely. Is this good or bad?

TIA

Richard Leopold
