The vent tube fitting can rust shut, causing pressure in the axle to build. Even a new seal will leak if there us enough pressure. Unthread the fitting( use a deep well socket to unscrew it from the axle). Then use a drill bit to clean out the fittting. Also try to blow out the hose with compressed air to make sure no bugs or dirt are obstructing.
You would have to have some realy bad spots on the axle shaft for the seals to leak that bad. Try fixing the vent tube fitting first.
