Default Leak front drivers area

I have noticed a leak of maybe my front shock or something around that area. Hopefully these pics can help out and have y'all point me in the right direction.

You haven't filled out your profile, therefore I can't check what mods you've done that may be behind this. But, if you are running aftermarket differential covers and have filled the diff to the fill port, then when hot that can make a big, oily mess right in that area when the lube bubbles out the top of the breather hose.

To be frank, if you're going to ask questions, then please complete your profile to help folks better diagnose what might be wrong.

Thanks Mark, I thought all that was already completed, well now it is and thanks for the help.

Not too much done to the Jeep in that area... but if anyone has any ideas for me to check on, please let me know. Thanks again!

Looks like your shock has a little seepage which is not uncommon.
