I'm sure it's the CV boot. That's not oil, it's grease.

Yup just a cv. Mine did it last week and I've been 4-wheelin with no trouble so far. I've already replaced driver's side (Advance Auto $70) so I'll just be replacing this one too. I'll be getting it for free since the new one came with lifetime warranty. Just give them the old busted factory one, my buddy behind the counter will take care of it. Word to the wise, get in good with the parts store folks, I've saved a LOT!:naughty:

Don't worry about it, it's nothing else, nor is it uncommon or even time sensitive. My stock CVs did that right after I put my first lift on, same color grease. I put hose clamps over the stock clamps and that worked for about 2 months, then the boots shredded and I duct-taped them up and I drove it like that for another 8 months or so through an entire winter using 4wd most of the time. Take Elton up on his offer and I recommend the CVs with free lifetime replacement from NAPA.

Can't go wrong with lifetime warranty! Good luck, it shouldn't take long. Nice trick I found with CV's is knocking them out of the hub with an air hammer. They end up sliding right out, even the ones that have been beaten with a 5lb hammer for 30 min straight and wouldn't budge. But if no air compressor then I'd suggest PB Blaster.

Do the CVs from O'Reily come with that lifetime warrenty, also i heard that aftermarket brands have problems at full droop?
