if boots were just filled or have been filled with the "better" grease, (i guess if your running the non blue axles) you will get this, there is a fix, but ill have to ck with my shop tomorrow.

drive shaft grease ? Check the rubber housings on both ends of both shafts. most likely one or more of them have been ripped open. If so, it's not good and you should get them checked and if not too late, repacked. You should avoid a broken drive shaft at any time.
Someone i know had one, not so long ago :-(

I am a someone who just had this happen @ Watkins Glen, uphill right-hander. Not fun. Identical video and came to rest about 4" from the "blue trees" steel guardrail. If you have black axles (turbo) you will need to re-pack then with Neo or Krytex. Before I did the re-pack, they bled like yours.
