Arrow DIY coilover install

SUP members,

Yesterday I had finished installing my front coils. Today I started the rear, but as I was jacking the rear to place my car on jack stands I noticed a HUGE and QUICK leak out of nowhere. (red arrow is pointing where its from)



It would only leak when I raise the rear. I then put the car on ground level then raised the front so I can see where the leak was from, so I snapped that picture. It also stopped leaking once the rear was on the ground. I believe its oil from my transmission?. I was just wondering if this normal? Or do I have to replace a bushing/seal?

When the front was raised, I tried turning my steering wheel left and right and when I did my wheels would shake/vibrate.

Can any member shoot me information on this? This is obviously my first time working on my car and I just got it about a year ago. Thanks in advance for your guy's help! I'll try and answer any questions.
