Drive shaft replacement

Hi!

ive been replacing my shafts for big block ones and everything else under the arches too. I changed the drivers one first and it went pretty smoothly and felt like it pushed home okay. However I've just jacked the car up to do the passenger side and it's weeping oil from where the drivers side goes into the diff. This is the first time I've done this so was wondering if it will pull itself home when driven or do I need to take the wheel off and give the end some persuasion with the hammer and a block of Jim duggans finest ?

cheers :)

U may if snagged up te driveshaft seal when putting it In and I always smack the drive shaft in with a copper hammer just to make sure it's home, and do good course put the the drive shaft nut on so when u smack it if u do damage the thread u can always recut it when u remove the nut

Will whip it off I think when I go back to fit the caliper, cheers for the reply pal
