I have an 85 runner with a 93 rear axle with a lockrite locker, 456 gears and sky's rear disk...I have had the axle on the truck for 3-4 months and some decent offroad trips, the truck has been sittin for about two weeks and on both rear tires on the inside by the brakes I have a leak..a decent leak so I checked the brakes and it looks like there fine truck drives and stops and is still full of fluid the kid I bought the axle said it had less than 500 miles on the locker and gears so this may be a dumb question but what seals do you think are leaking and do I have to pull the axles out to change them? it looks like gear oil more than brake fluid and is there some kind of stop leak or should I just pull the brakes off tear into it?

Likely both the inner and outer seals are leaking if oil is making it out to the brakes:

Might check to see if your diff. breather is clogged, if so that can let pressure build up and force oil out past the seals.

The inner seals are easy. the outer seals cannot be gotten to without taking off the wheel bearings which would most likely mean replacement. I would replace the inner axle seals.

Alright thanks man I check and see if the diff. breather is clogged but I'm guessing a seal...Is there any special tools needed mybe a puller or just rip them out and replace?
