Rear diff leaking at tube
I have a 1990 bronco with an 8.8 rear end just recently i noticed leakeage from the overflow tube of the rear end. i took it to the shop and they found nothing wrong. Does anyone have any ideas what could make it leak, it seems to be worst when the truck is parked on a hill, when on flat ground no leakage.
Thanks

HOW did he check? SOMETHING is either filling the axle and displacing the oil, OR causing the ring gear's splashing to pump the oil into that side of the tube and out the cap. Either way, I think you have to pull the rear cover (and change the oil) to find out.
Have you checked the level at the fill plug?
