Rear Axle Seal leak!

Hey all,
1978 C20 with the 14 bolt floating axle. I've replaced the right rear seal 3 times (including bearings) and it continues to leak!! Doesn't feel like any slop in the fit. The seal appears to fit correctly. I'm at a loss. Any ideas what might be going on?

I've read that you can possibly overfill the axle oil?? I've just filled to the fill plug where it just barely comes out.
