Default RH Front Axle Seal Leak???

Hi All...

I have an 07 JK Rubicon with 7k. I noticed today I have a leak on the right side of the front axle tube, where it exits by the wheel and drips on the floor just beside the tire. Has anyone else seen this issue?

At 6500, I got a 3.5 lift with 35s and a snow plow. Havent wheeled it yet with the lift and 35s, but did one time in stock form and had no issues that I can remember that would have caused this leak. Also.. I have only plowed twice and the snowfall was small each time.

So I cant tell what caused this leak, the tires, plow, or just a faulty seal???

Thanks in advance...

I had the same problem. I took it to the dealer and they said my diff was overfilled. This all happened after I put my lift on and did my gears. I thought they may have been yanking my chain, but after the visit it did not leak.
