There is a seal on the front output behind the bearing retainer you need to
remove this to pry out the seal and change it. Before doing that steam clean
the under side of the hummer and watch the leak for a few days could be a
leaking valve cover at the rear.

> Hi.
> I think I have located my last (for the moment) fluid leak on the M998...I
thought the hoses on the transfer cooling loop connections were leaking,
but, after double clamping them, and cleaning the transfer case off good, I
noticed that the fluid leak stems from around the large nut holding the
front driveshaft yoke on to the transfer shaft, and when the vehicle is
moving, the oil splashes up and onto the cooling loop hoses and transfer
case...
> Would anyone know if a fluid leak is possible there ( inside the yoke) and
what the seal washer that is supposed to be there looks like? I do have a
few rubber seals in my box of humvee spare crap that are serrated around
the outside edge and somewhat look like they may match the inside splines of
the yoke! Could this be the right seal?
