I had to pull out the driver side axle shaft on my Dana 30 two weeks ago. I was replacing the ball joints and unit bearing. Everything was fine after the install. Yesterday (two weeks later) I did the same job on my passenger side. When I jacked up the passenger side to take the wheel off, I noticed diff oil dripping off of the C on the driver side. There was a small puddle on the ground that wasn't there five minutes earlier. I was very careful when I removed and reinstalled the axle shaft two weeks ago. There was a little bit of sand in the tube, but I ran a vacuum down there before reinstalling the shaft. This has been the biggest job I've done to the jeep so far so my knowledge is limited. If my inner axle seal is leaking, why did it take two weeks to show? I drive the jeep every day.
