Default Quick Help Please

I'm supposed to leave for Cedar Point in 2 hours. I have a leak in my drivers side front differential seal. If I drive my truck down there will it hurt anything? Is this a "needs to be fixed immediately" or "don't put it in 4wd and you'll be fine" type of situation? Although I do plan on fixing it as soon as I get back. Thanks for your help.

Steve

If it's leaking you can run the diff dry which will cause problems. Depends on how much it's leaking, I suppose. I'd make sure it's topped off before you leave and perhaps keep some gear lube in the back, check it when you stop for gas or something if you absolutely have to take the truck.
