    Rear differential leaking?

    i appreciate it. i'd love to get any YT vids you used but I 'm not sure I have the proper tools for this job so not sure if i should try this one. i'm pretty savvy with my truck but need a torque wrench and potentially a bearing puller right?

    Rear differential leaking?

    yeah when you put it like that it makes more sense, also the ribbed looking cover over the rear diff case that the u joint is connecting into can spin freely with my fingers spinning it. Is that normal or showing that its loose?

    Rear differential leaking?

    so after driving about 25 miles with newly added differential oil i checked my truck and its dripping from the actual u joint? i figured it would come out of the seal to the right into the diff case. i'm not exactly sure how to proceed do I still need to replace the pinion seal or is this a...

    Rear differential leaking?

    Found this information regarding specs for my axle, so I can dial in the preload. Just so i'm understanding this correctly, preload is when i have the axle on jacks the preload is the force i should turn the pinion nut (20-35lbs) and then when truck is lowered onto ground with full weight i go...

    Rear differential leaking?

    Noticed a bit of fluid in my driveway after running an errand today. Not sure where to even begin diagnosing. Anyone have any idea why my undercarriage is coated in oil spray?

    what is this wire called on the Water in Fuel sensor? Part #?

    if this water in fuel sensor cable is off or broken, can air get into the filter housing? my schrader valve only pulses fuel it does not give me a 100% stream of fuel but my truck runs very well sitting still, had it stall on me after driving for 1-3mins after finally getting it running again...
