Default 2000 Cherokee Sport--Leak?

I just noticed 2 silver-dollar sized light, almost clear, "oil" drops on my garage floor. The leaks appear to have come from the middle of my rear axle. The 2000 Cherokee Sport 4x4 has about 85,000 miles on it.

Has anyone experienced this? Do you have any insights, ideas, suggestions?? Thanks.

Rear differential cover is leaking.

Remove the cover and scrape all the old RTV/gasket off and put it back on with a bead of new RTV. THen refill with gear oil and your done.
