2020 Tacoma readylift 3''front 2'' rear. 50k miles axle boots cracked and leaking. Replaced axles and 10k miles later,fluid coming out from case.what gives,could the lift be causing this.? 🤣
 
Bad seal. Also, the outer bearing. Check and see if there is a lot of play in the CV at the axle. If so, get the ECGS bushing and seal replacement kit.

TIP: If you have trouble getting the removal tool to fit, grind it down a bit on the back side so that it will fit. The one I used would not fit without modification.
