So I have a 1990 XJ straight 6 4.0 and I am running stock axle dana 35's..well my front axle seems to be leaking gear oil but its not outta the diff its coming out of my passenger side of my axle. I want to find new axle or or newer than mine to put under it..I want the dana 44 for it but right now funds are tight So any suggestions on how to fix this problem

Its the axel seal inside the axel housing u will have to take the cover off the diff and take the differental out and replace the seal on the passenger side the seal is like 3$ gear oil 10-15$ and rtv for gasket 3-5$ so for less than 25$ u can fix it urself fairly easily
