Rear clunking noise

[HoosierJeeper]

Over the past few days I've noticed a clunking noise coming from the rear of the KJ. It kind of sounds like a ball joint type clunk. I checked the rear "boomerang" and the balljoint on that looked good- no rips and wasn't leaking. I then decided to feel the shocks to see if they were loose. Both were tight, but the drivers side was dry and grease free, then I tried the passenger side and it was completely covered in grease. Does this mean the shock is leaking?

If you scroll down there, it has a chart and it says a film is normal, but the passenger side made my hand black.

Thanks!

A small film is sometimes ok but completely covered is leaking and no good.

I found a puddle on the garage floor under the shock.

I took it for a drive and it really sounds like the passenger rear area.

Me thinks it be a bad shock

Looks like a blown shock if there is that much oil coming out of it
