Transfer case overflowing

[iwillnc]

So While looking at something else under the truck I noticed my transfer case had had fluid leaking around it, upon checking the tightness of the plugs I found the fill plug completely loose, I pulled it out just for the hell of it and it was just gushing fluid out...

I did have someone replace the fluid, but I still don't see how it could get filled that high by itself.

Upon searching the forums I found a similar topic only it ended up with the cause of the problem being rooted to a lot of deep water fording, I have done no such thing in a quite a while, certainly not since I had the fluid changed.

The fluid is dark red in color.


Is it possible that the transmission could be leaking into the transfer case, I don't see many possibilites...

The truck seems to drive just fine..
