    Thank you DABS. MY oil leaking on oil bath hubs was what you told me to check.

    My 2006 Champion oil bath hubs were leaking. You said to check the plugs and that in 2006 the teflon would get soft and leak. The one leaking was almost finger tight so I decided to change the oil while there. I also checked all the other hubs and could not believe that all the others apparantly were starting to seap. Everyone of the hubs had some water intrusion and every plug was loose. I drained each and everyone and used Perma tec sealant RTV gasket maker as you suggested. They should not back out now.

    This is something everyone should probably check if the see oil leaking rather than ordering new protectors.

    Great advice. Thanks for your help.
