Tolerences can only be so tight when you run an o-ring on a shaft IN a bushing, especially with stuff this small..
I did notice today that my ourdrive bearings were COMPLETLY dry, truck has 12 packs through it and has never seen water or an solvents on the bearings. These had the same "dry" sound sound when I pulled the diff out that you would get when you clean a bearing with motor spray and then spin it dry. Clean, no grit inside and no wear that I could tell but the were dry for sure...just something you guys might want to check..
These were my thoughts on the out drives...
