The wheels and brakes have been off my BJ8 for almost a week now waiting for
new wheel cylinders and I am seeing a small puddle of oil on the floor under
the left axle flange. I seems to be a light oil like engine oil but surely
it must be whatever is in the differential.  Will this go away when I
reinstall the hub extensions and tighten the wheel nuts?

Or should I be thinking about a new oil seal in the hub?
