AAWW crraaap!! Well... Do i have the devil up my *** this week. I found some local guy on ebay selling an OEM hub for 59$. Wicked deal,he no longer had his truck. He lived near so I went to pick it up and went back home. I noticed near the end of the drive that the grinding seemed to have reduced greatly.
WELL... when I went back to the parking to replace the damn hub, taaddaaa, a pile of freakin fluid leaking from the front end of the truck. Considering that my power steering, tranny, break fluid were full and the leaking fluid was gold, seemingly coming front the front axle, seems like I DO have an issue with my front gears.
So, considering this is my first 4x4 vehicle and have owned it less than a year, can someone tell me, is this a common way for the front differential to go? Grind, then leak out fluid?
