    What is this oil leak and broke a half shaft on my SSV

    I'm kind of thinking this all over and it might just be easier to replace the whole Diff. I can get a new one for around $800 on rockauto or find something cheaper on eBay. I am looking around right now.

    Spotlight bulb part number?

    Hello, I am looking to replace the spotlight bulb since it blew out the other day. There was a part number on it and I went to clean the dirt off and it took the number with it. Can this be replaced with an LED bulb or does it need to stay a sealed bulb?

    Control arms

    I just did mine over. Since my truck came from Vermont and now has 160k on it. The bushings were shot and arms rusted badly. So I replaced them and had to cut one out with a Sawzall since the bolt was fused into one bushing. I just went with the steel ones. I did notice the aluminum ones since I...
