Rear axle seals

I have read some posts on problems some PSD owners are experiencing problems with rear axle seals. Is this problem in the V10 trucks as well? What causes the seals to fail?

Re: Rear axle seals

I noticed the paint peeled off my diff. I figured that I was running hot, and that the factory fluid level was too low. If you look at the factory fill plug, the fill level is below the axle tubes. I installed a mag-hytek, added 6 qts. of LE607 + friction modifier, repainted the rear axle, paint still on there after 15k miles. I wasnt going to take a chance, better safe than sorry. Will this solve the problem? Only time will tell.
