I have a 1996 Toyota T100. Saw this leak on the rear axle on the drivers side but do not know the cause. Shock looks fine but old. Brakes feel fine and reservoir fluid looks fine.

Thanks for looking and some ideas.

Is it oil or brake fluid? Looks to me like axle housing is seeping at the perch mount.

I did try to find a good drip to see what kind of fluid but no luck. Pretty dirty there too. I am checking it before and after driving.

Thanks

Is there anything I can do? Id there much to worry about?

I keep a regular maintenance schedule and the rear diff is topped of with oil.

Did you clean it first to make sure it actually is a leak?

looks like it is leaking from the brake line clip. The bolt that holds the clip in the axle housing. Maybe take out the bolt and take a look. Then clean it off and reinstall that bolt with some blue loctite. Thought being the leak is comming from the hole the bolt is in perhaps. The loctite will act as a stop leak?
