Popped the fill plug off my rear axle to see if I was low and this chocolate brown milkshake thick ooze poured out of the diff cover.

Kinja'd!!!

Theories:

1) someone shit in my diff.

Or

2) the rear diff spent some quality time in a lake and nobody changed the fluid after.

Or

3) someone literally took a massive runny dump in my diff.

Side-note. Image upload on mobile appears to be broken.

Time to stick a camera down the fill hole. You'll either find rusty bits correlating with spending quality time at the bottom of a lake, or you'll get a close up shot of a dookie.

I need to check my rear diff. It's louder than usual. And I need to do both on the gx and oil too.   Man it never ends

Looks like you’re using the wrong viscosity o f Hershey’s syrup.

Hurk

When I dumped the ZJ’s diffs shortly after getting it, I dumped a bunch of water out along with the oil. Fortunately it wasn't getting much use so it hasn't milkshaked itself so bad quite yet. Also the water seemed reasonably clean. But I'm definitely happy I didn't wait to change it.
