Ever change your diff vent?
In the Garage Section of the pointy board there is a fairly new post about changing the diff vent. Anybody ever do this?

The guy that did the write up says he changes it YEARLY when he changes the diff oil. He claims:
It can build up with gunk over time and become blocked. This will lead to seal failure in the pinion seal or axle seals due to excessive pressure buildup. If the seal failure is not caught in time the loss of oil in the rear differential will lead to differential bearing and gear failure.
