What is this?

I should take a picture but let me describe it to you guys first. It looks like a breather vent and it has a cap on it. Its behind the front drivers side tire, sits above the frame and to the left of the shock if you're looking at it. It's slowly overflowing oil of some kind. What is it? And should i be worried? Smells like gear oil.

Front axle vent. Mine is slimy with oil too.

Yep, front diff vent. You can take it off and clean it out if it's too clogged. Make sure you put it back in all the way and the cap is on.

so no biggy that its leaking a little oil?

 

[MidnightRebel07]

No, that's why it's there to release too much pressure building up in the diff.

Hmm first time i ever noticed it. Oh well. Thanks guys. Also i see a little fluid underneath my power steering reservior sitting on top of my wheel well. It looks like its coming out of where it bolts into the reservior. Any thoughts?
