That’s a great looking truck. Congratulations! I’m sure it will be put to good use!

Sorry to hear it! I know a flat bed will be expensive, but it’s worth it to be safe.

Are you sure you are leaking gear oil? I see grease in your pictures. Have you checked the level of gear oil in your front differential?

This looks like axel boots >>> I like @cbrTodd ’s advice.
