Leaky front axle

Hi all,

Like a good little PW owner, I decided to go play a bit, just to get the motor warmed up. After parking on a rock for a nice photo-op (http://i1290.photobucket.com/albums/b527/wcdump/1941%20Dodge%20WC/20131123_103600_zps8404421a.jpg) I found a bit of a concern when I got back on level ground. Leaking oil/grease mix from the front knuckle/housing.

So for now I'll keep it on level ground, but I guess I have a couple of seals to fix up in the future. The list doesn't get shorter, that's for sure.

As a tyro PWer, I almost felt bad for twisting the old girl up like that, but then I figure it probably felt good to strech out a bit.

These trucks are cool.
