    Driver side, lightly.

    Mostly due to some water intrusion from some water fording I did some months back.

    Ended up draining and filling my front diff two different times. I will be replacing it anyway with a locked front axle, but not sure how long until I actually do that.

    I do have a Wit's End seal driver, just need to get everything else together but I have plans to buy other stuff before doing all that.

    The built-in undercarriage rust inhibitor hasn’t kicked in on my truck, but I do have the obligatory 90s Toyota steering leak.

    What? lol I never said I won't opt to...in fact I said you can have my front end free!

    I just haven't gotten his front end yet cause we haven't talked about shipping yet but I'm all for getting it!
