So we just got back from a 5 day trip through the Blue Ridge and Smokey Mountains. Blasted a lot of fire roads in the Washington National Forest, camped and relaxed. The last trail we did was called Enchanted Creek. Prob rate it a 3 out of 10. No hard hits, deep water, or ever bottomed out. We we headed south to run Hurricane Creek in NC when we noticed fluid on the ground while filling up. Crawed under and the front diff is leaking. Seems to be coming from up top and a little from the axle seals. Has anyone had this happen? I just had the truck serviced and the diff fluid changed not long before we left. My only theory is that they over filled the front and while I was in 4wd it started puking out of the breather. It stopped while at slow speeds but them started again once we hit the highway at higher elevations above 3,000ft. I did pull the fill plug when i first noticed it and fluid came pouring out. Could it comprise the axle seals of it was over filled?
