I have a leak on the right side of the final drive of my 1996 721D at the axle. I read the post by the Hemikid on replacing his bearing on his GH axle, but there was no mention of the planetary gears and how to remove them. I called Grasshopper and they would not give me any info on how to take the final drive apart. They said basically to take it to the dealer, but I don't have the money for that right now.
Just wondered if anyone has any suggestions, or insight in this tear down and reassembly. I've done plenty of car repairs, but planetary gears are new to me.
Thanks for any help you can give me.
