I am in the early stages of a tear-down for my 74 "40 build. When I removed my rear driveshaft, oil spilled out from the yoke where the nut is. I also have disassembled my transfer case and found someone had put RTV sealant under the washer for the P-brake drum retaining nut. It got me thinking, what is the proper way to prevent oil getting past the splines and assembly?
 
Its pretty common to use silicon to seal the splines when a new seal is installed.
