Doing routine maintenance today,found gear oil leak coming out of "frame" forward of the DS leaf spring.
I know the vent for the axle goes up into that area,but there has never been any oil in that area before,
Oil level in rear (D44 w/Detroit locker) has not been added to in months-level has always been below the fill plug as is required--
Only change has been the recent cold weather---IIRC the thru bolt for the vent was shortened to keep this from happening--- running 85-140 Valvoline gear lube.
Anyone else having this problem in cold weather ?
Thanks,
