When i fill the transfer case with fluid it ends up leaking out the drive axles. i only fill it to the point where i can feel the fluid just below the fill hole with my finger. Why is it leaking out of the axles?

How does the oil get from the transfer case to the front axle?

I guess I assumed he meant the differential case.

If that is wrong, then I don't know how the heck it could be leaking as actually described...

I'm sure that's what he meant. Not a big deal here as everyone probably assumed correctly but in other cases the wrong terminology could result in wrong advice being given which in turn could lead to disaster.
