I have diff oil leak at the backing plate, where oil is leaking down the inner and outer faces of the backing plate. It is definitely not brake fluid.
I suspect the oil seals may be bad and began by removing the half shaft and noted immediately that oil came out through the bearing. I think the purpose of the oil seal is to keep oil in the axle and out of the bearing - is this correct? Are failed oil seals the likely culprit?
Thanks
