Hey just a quick question in regards to joke seals, well this is my 2nd one ive gone through in a few months gearbox is in good condition an using redline lightweight shockproof oil.Is this a regular issue with these boxes? could it be a pressure build up running high boost,ive got an inline filter for gbox oil so could this be a problem?thanks

I'm curious to know how the in-line filter works given there's no pump in these gb's. Depending on how this works it might be a factor. Engine boost should not pressurise the gearbox (in a stock gearbox setup)

You may have a blocked gearbox vent, which is roughly in the middle of the extension housing, at the top.
