It may be the slip yoke bearing is worn, causing excess movement in the slip yoke, and wearing the seal. Another option is a slip yoke eliminator. Check out JB Conversions to see what I mean. I run a 10" lift and still have the factory seal in my blazer.

you have a slip yolk? does yours leak? i got two lifted trucks, k30 with 3-4 inches of lift then the s10 with about 9. both rear output seals leak, have always leaked, been replaced, have changed driveshafts still leak. i just accept the fact that they are just going to leak and have carpet squares on the ground in the garage

I still have a slip yoke in my Blazer, and it doesn't leak. It's only a NP233, but was running with a 5" lift for 10 years, and a 10" lift for over a year. My '03 GMC had an NP246 transfer case(slip yoke) and a 6" lift with no leaks.

I have the SYE for the Blazer, but the slight vibration I had has disappeared so the SYE sits in the shelf until I get motivated, or have issues with the slip yoke.

I went looking for a link for the bearing in the tail housing, and as nearly as I can tell there either is no bearing, or it's not a replacement item.
