datzenmike Posted May 3, 2014 Report Share Posted May 3, 2014 Not really an AWD more of a 4 wheel drive. Isn't AWD any vehicle constantly in 4 wheel drive? 2 Quote Link to comment

izzo Posted May 3, 2014 Report Share Posted May 3, 2014 Cool truck! 166k probably is true. I just bought one yesterday that has 143k original miles. Quote Link to comment

Messi720D Posted May 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 it only leaks at start up for like a minute or two then it just stops and no leak after but the leak is fairly big as the picture shows so would this be the front main seal or could it be sumthing else Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Hope it is the front seal, as its only $5 and easy to replace. Check your factory service manual or buy one from Amazon for $20. Quote Link to comment
