Hey guys. So my rear differential had a small leak somewhere that left drops the size of a quarter on my driveway but eventually started leaking more. I jacked it up, got under and cleaned it the other night to let it drip out again and it looks like the leak is coming from the two bottom bolt holes on the rear diff cover. Any advice on what to do?

Should I drain it, take the whole cover off and reseal the whole thing or could I take the bolts out add some sealant and then put them back in perhaps?

I can post some pics up later maybe it will help...?
