Sometimes after a rebuild, a tiny bit of crud from assembly gets under the cup lip, then when it sits it may drip. Pull it apart and check it before you drive it. Clean it up and if it all looks good apply plenty of rubber grease as you reassemble. I just did some last week on another vehicle that's been sitting for a couple of years and the original assembly grease obviously didn't like the dot4 fluid. I cleaned it all up, reassembled with good quality rubber grease and it came up like new with no leaks. Now I have to wait another couple of years to see if it goes off again - just kidding.
