    What he said. That’s your sway bar end link and unless you changed them for aftermarket, there’s no zerk.

    If it’s oozing a little grease it’s not the end of the world. Eventually (like most any suspension part) the end links will need to be replaced but not for a loooonnnng time.

    Don’t worry about the grease.

    Welcome to the group. There are meets. @EatSleepTacos setup a good number of dinner meets that would end up 10-12 trucks deep, but he just moved 4-5 hrs away. There is usually at least 1-2 smaller meet ups for wheeling, camping, or drinking. Breweries are popular meetup places.

    But you are old. :rofl: :anonymous:

    My first oil change for free at the dealer too 2 hrs, the 2nd took 2.5 hrs, the last took 2.5 hrs. I know 2 of them was just an oil change, because I told them everything had already been checked.

    No one even told me about the free stuff. I didn't find out until it was almost too late.

    Sooo just out of curiosity, how much play should be at the diff spline side of our CV axles? Of course there'll be some play in and out from the cerclip, but as far as up, down and side to side o_O

    Some thoughts on quietly exploring the countryside.
    I spent the afternoon today slowly driving the narrow gravel roads where life goes on day after day. Watching cattle graze and take shelter from the sun laying in the shade under trees. Looking at old and new barns and horses running around pastures. Enjoying the green rolling hillsides and the quiet visual beauty of Virginia. Thinking about the history of the area and the people who lived and worked the land. And when I returned home I realized what a wonderful calming experience exploring is for me. I have done it for years with off road and sport motorcycles but my Taco is much more enjoyable because the concentration is ethereal rather than adrenal. Just some thoughts on why I love my Taco.

    It's just an endlink for the sway bar. If it's only seeping I wouldn't worry too much about it. If you want piece of mind it's probably a $20 part and a quick swap out.
