    Did you buy the truck new? If not the warranties are 36,000 miles basic and 60,000 miles drivetrain. You could talk to your local dealership and see if they will honor the coverage.

    I just went and they told me that most likely it will not be covered dundee warranty, and first they have to do an inspection of 105dlls, and if they decide that it will not be cover under warranty because of my lift then I will have to pay the 105dlls.. I don't think I will take a chanse on that.. What do you guys think happen, or what can it be

    It all depends on where the oil is coming from... Drive train warranty is 60 K miles. So if that is a drive train leak it should be covered.

    Clean it up and locate the Source of the leak.
