2016 rear end leak
Is there an overflow on the rear axle. I parked on a 20% grade for about 4 hrs and the next day there was a large oil spot where my rear axle hog head was. This truck has 10000 miles on it. I havent noticed any oil where i park my truck on my home driveway.
Any help is appreciated.

Was the truck on an incline or decline?
post a pic of the stain so I can see where the leak was. A rear diff will leak from the pinion seal, axle seal, diff cover or vent tube....is the hogs head one of these areas?
