I was driving my Montero in the rain the other day and I spun the tire a little bit on an oily turn, nothing out of the ordinary. After which, the handling went to hell, and when I pulled into my driveway I could feel the locker was engaged. Problem is, I never installed the locker pump. I jacked the rear up and noticed it was a little low on fluid, so I put 2 quarts in, and noticed I have a bad axle seal. but the locker is still stuck. I remember hearing someone in the past having the issue, but not sure if they ever figured it out either.

Any tips on where to start? is it ok to continue to drive it around?
