    Not really, think about you rear drive shaft, it's always at an angle. The front diff in a center link setup is fixed so even less stress on the drive shaft

    I had SDHQ charge mine so they were extended when they were charged but I have a question about this. I have one of the regulators but no tank, can I let air pressure out with them on the truck? Like say I wanna drop 30lbs on my rear shocks and I just want to make sure its done evenly.

    You may want to see if it is just a worn out bushing. Vi was looking at Greg's this weekend since his was blown also and that is what he said was wrong.

    ...too much shit to list.
    :confused:
    Bushings are insulators to the frame mounting points. How can a worn bushing cause a leak?

    I see light fluid leaking but not as bad as Greg. I know Greg has it bad since he needs to refill fluid it every so often.
