    While taking out my passenger half shaft I found a little bit of transmission fluid had leaked into the cavity between the stub axle and the CV joint. How do I fix it? It doesn't look like any was leaking all the way out before I took off the joint. This is on a 2.7 355 if it matters.

    this is an easy fix...its either the silicone seal on the bolt or the seal behind the flange.
    take your air gun and remove the bolt.....pull the flange out.....if damaged pry the seal out and replace (tap the seal back in with a like sized socket).
    then reinstall the flange and bolt (silicone on the bolt) and torque to specs.

    super easy repair.
