Anybody figure out how to seal water out of a 2.5ton?

[ABlockhd]

I was wondering if anybody has figured out how to keep water out of the diff on 2.5 ton rockwells.  I have installed extra seals in the inside rear of my hubs(which are flipped out on the rear).  I packed the entire hubs with grease and fitted them with grease zerks.  Pinion seals dont leak.  Breather tubes dont get water to them.  But yet everytime I go wheeling I drain the fluid and still get water and last time it bearly flowed out the drain hole because it was so thick.  Hoping somebody might have had some luck.

how much grease did you put?

Packed them full, so I can squirt grease in and push the water out of the hub and berrings.  Seems to be working good.  I realize I am going to get some water but it sems a little excessive.

did you silicone the chunk brfore bolting, and the pinion flanges before bolting, and the chunk side cover?

and heat draws water in no heat no little water just remeber let your diff cool before submerging it
I think pirate 4x4 has a big article on it. and alot of grease, your probly gunna have to service it out regularly to.

maybee a dumb question on my part but is it gettin water in it or condensation from sitting after being wheeled  my old john deere will have a gallon of water in it after sitting a couple months durin the winter  just wonderin if thats what is happening ?

that is a good question? seen it happen!

That is very possible.  It sat for over 4 months.  Everything is siliconed up, tore all the covers up and resealed it before I run it the first time. Guess I'll have to buy 80-90 by the 55gal drum.
