Default Dana S60 is leaking.

I awoke this morning to find a puddle of rear end fluid right underneath the cover. No idea where to start on this, as Ive never had to mess with the rear in this car. Could it just be the gasket that is bad?

I recently have done a few dig races on the street with a 555R tires.

Im also making less than 500rw

could be the gasket. The vent might to clogged too and pushed the gasket out.

If you have that cheap stamped chrome cover replace it! 98% of the people that have it have/had a leak from there.... Mine leaked from there I replaced it with a LPW cover and have had no issues since.
