While working on suspension I accidentally pulled the
front passenger half shaft out of the front
differential. I got it back in but some oirl poured out
of where the half shaft inserts. Just curious if this
would be transmission oirl or if the diff has it's own
separate oil. Let me know if you have a sec. Thanks!

The diff does have its own separate oil from the transmission. I'm not an expert on 4x4's, but I know the diff does have its own oil.

I hope this answers your question.

Check your owners manual, I believe it's calls for 80w-90 GL-5 gear lube.
