Front Diff Leaking

I have a 2003 4 runner v8 all wheel drive. I replaced my front CV shaftes about five months ago. I didnt replace the seals and the dust covers when I replaces the shafts and as a resolt I have had a leak on the drivers side. This weekend I had some free time and replaced both seals. Now the passenger side is pooring out gear oil. I have no idea why. The seals when in great. While removing the shafts the second time they came out really easy. Not sure if it doesnt lock all the way in or what. I inspected and there are no defects. If anyone has any idea or had similar let me know. I'm at a lose.

Did you use OEM shafts and seals? Just my 2 cents, but a while back I had a heck of a time chasing down a leaking seal gremlin when I replaced the front shafts and seals that were non OEM. By the time I had all OEM parts back in place everything was fine.
