    Hey guys I did the search and can't find the part # for the rear diff fill plug crush washer. I'm guessing thats what is wrong, all the sudden its leaking around the fill plug. Can anyone give any other opinions on what it might be? But most of all give me the part # for the crush washer and fill plug #'s Thanks

    Doesn't really have a color that I can tell because its just damp around the plug and below it, but not even enough to drip

    It might just be loose or a bad washer then.
