Re: Rear axle seal and rear diff inspection

""I have read quite a few posts of people who had made it to 30-50k and thought they were home free only to hear a clunk and call a tow truck.""

I haven't heard of one person whos diff actually failed....meaning they weren't able to drive the truck. Mine was replaced a couple months ago (30+k) but only because I found a larger than normal chunk in the diff oil. Most groan, whine, or clunk. Luckily though, those that have had to tow them were few and most of those did so only because they were afraid to drive it, not because it just stopped in its' tracks. I think I'd go for the tru trac myself but I'm not about to give up my factory locker.
