Rear diff: Wtf is causing this
Finally got around to changing
my front and rear diff fluid and transfer case fluid. I bought it at 118k and everything was freshly changed now I have 245k and saw this on the rear diff. I have been told it was from a loose pinion bolt. Wanted to get y’all’s opinions. Thanks.
