Front Axle Leaking
Noticed some spotting in front of the house, and saw some leaking coming from the driver side near the axle. I'm guessing it's the axle seal leaking. I recently switched in to 4x4 about a week ago, shortly after that I noticed the leak. I have a trip to San Antonio coming up in the middle of Feb, about a 650 mile round trip. Can I continue with the plans and get it fixed afterwards?

It depends on how bad it is leaking, but yes, you should be fine. The axle shafts are not spinning in the front axle unless the hubs are locked. Keep them unlocked and you will not be rotating the front differential.
