Really, so what does it take to post a new thread here. Reluctant if this will even work until I hit submit. Fingers crossed...

New to me 95 4Runner with questions and things I want to learn.
 
I sure wish I could create a thread under 4th gens. Just I inherited a 2wd sport. 05 with 130k...needs some T4R love.

Newbie here. I literally just joined 5 minutes ago. So, how many posts do I need so I can post a new thread? I think I have a pretty serious problem with my 2001 4runner, and need some questions answered. I have lurked here before, and actually solved some problems by just searching around. For that, I am thankful. This current problem has me stumped. Oh, and I know nothing about cars!!

Well, I have a rear diff leak. My husband looked at it, and thinks the leak is coming from a broken bolt on the lower left side. That's all he told me. Someone on a different thread said that may not be possible since the fluid is held in an area where there are no bolts. I've also been told that we may need to weld a cover over the area of the leak. Both people asked for pictures. I need my husband to help me with this because I have no idea where to look. My car leaks about a tablespoon or so a day. It started in July, and at that time, my husband got under there and plugged it, but not 100%. It did stop for a few weeks, but started up again... late Aug/early Sept. We did have a diff service after my husband "plugged" it so it was full as of Aug. 6. I imagine that it must be very low with fluid, and I know it's getting critical. I came here to see if anyone could advise me on what to do. I fear maybe having to replace the entire rear axle. I guess first and foremost, I need to keep adding whatever fluid goes in there until we get a permanent fix.
