CV Joint/Axle

[tjnelson12]

I just got a 2004 tacoma double cab yesterday and I have noticed a leak that I think is coming from the passenger side cv axle. I have attached a closeup with where I think it's leaking and one from farther away showing it's the cv axle. I am new to tacoma. Please tell me it's not going to cost a ton to fix. Thanks in advance for the help.

Try new boot first

it looks more like an axle seal and not the shaft or the boot.. i cant speak for toyota but i had a subaru with the same problem and the subaru dealership only charged me $75 to fix

Look around it to make sure that there is nothing leaking above it.
