Leak diagnosis

[Dmoneygage]

This is a photo of the back of the front drive shaft. There appears to be some type of oil leak coming down the frame, cross member and evident on the front driveshaft as well. Can anyone give me some possible causes of this leak? Sorry I cannot provide better pictures.

Hard to tell. Is that a gp pic? Does it say its oil? Are there engine pics? There are oil lines on the front of the motor. Front cover. Front seal. The list goes on. Need more info.

It’s an auction item. Can’t get them to respond. Seems like it originates past the oil pan somewhere up there. Hard to say with so little info.

That location on the driveshaft is directly below the Air Operated Pump... it is also directly below the PTO cover plate. The trans fill line also runs right over that location.

since this doesn't look like a winch truck, that cover might be loose, the fill hose might be split/cracked, or the AOP might be blowing oil mist or have a oil leak... Maybe...

it is not a winch truck. Very informative. Thanks for the advice.

Silly me. I misread. Thought you said front. ronmar is right. That is classic hyd fluid dumping. Especially if the cab isn’t folded in the pics. They tried to pump it and that was the result. Probably a bad seal on the cab latch.

Ok. That seems like an easy fix. Wish me luck.

It is. O ring. Good luck.
