Rear differential is leaking

I definitely change fresh fluid when if bought this truck a few months while back ago so I noticed a bit of dumps that’s why I started worrying about it

 

No need in posting more pictures.
You need to clean the diff with a wire brush and parts cleaner.
We can't help you, only you can help yourself.

I don't mean that in rude way. Just sayin that, You, me, and everyone else can't tell anything until we can actually see what's going on.
It's going to take some work, but a good cleaning will get you well on the way to figuring out the source of the leak.

 

Yeah that's still crusty and dirty.

 

If OP cleaned that and it's dripping that fast, he has issues.
And who ever sprayed that coating on there didn't do him any favors.
They just masked a problem and made it harder on the next guy (OP being the next guy)

 

Seams top side is leaking

 

Found it. The leak is coming top side of the covers

 

You saying you got pinhole leaks?

I'd pull the fill plug, top it off, then go drive around on the highway, then park and watch.

 

It’s been filled with new fluid do you want me to it again

 

Where can I find a brand new or rebuild rear difs

 

Top off the new 3 quarts of rear dif fluids and ran it no leaks and will be finishing painting tomorrow so far I’m very satisfied my buddy did amazing job it took us 3 hrs weekend days cheers guys and good luck with the other projects and thx for the inputs anyway

 

Well, that's definitely one way to fix a leak.

 

Nice to have friends with those skills

 

Thx yea for sure

 

I bought a rear end housing off someone parting out a Tacoma and swapped out the 4.10s for my 4.56s... but that's incredible how you can weld like that.

 

Wow. I have never seen a third member inspected like that lol. At that point, just buy a used housing. I work on differentials in California. If the housing is leaking like that, there's no real point in saving it. If you managed to fix the leak, props to you. I'm willing to bet good money that the housing might be warped from the welder heat distorting the pumpkin area. Let me know it goes. I'm too invested in this now

 

yea for sure for now though its all good dry
