05 Oil Leak ?

I just bought an 05 F-350 DRW King ranch I love the truck but it has 500 miles on it and it's leeking at the rear main seal. I am getting dime to quarter sized drops coming out of the bell housing. I can't believe it. I have been reading the posts on this sight an I thought the rear main problem had beed fixed. Ths sticker on the door has a build date of 04/05.I just traded an 03 duramax 3/4 ton. It ran great no problems but I like Ford. I may have made a 52,300.00 dollar mistake.

Hummm interesting. I have an 04 with 21k and it's still leaking around the bellhousing and it sure looks like a "rear main" issue to me also. It's not pouring out nor puddling, but it's always damp around the bottom of the bellhousing. But if you say it's assembly lube, well I'll just be patient and not cry wolf either... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif
