Thanks for the replies all. I tried to feel around the top of the shock and it wasn't wet at all. It definitely seems slightly more wet along that line than previously. The obvious culprit at this point seems like it would be a rubber seal. Either way I suppose I need to order up a set of lines...

Pics from today, a few days later. The blue bits are clearly yellowed from absorbing fluid. This could just be leftover I missed before or newly leaked fluid.

Pics right after wiping off. You can see torn bits of blue shop towels.

I saw this thread way back in October (AHC Leak Thread) when I was searching here because I had a similar issue. I thought it would be cleaner to start a new thread. I was just moving in to a new house at the time, in fact it was carrying a full load over the less than perfect road to my new...

I still need to get under there and do a real inspection, but basically it looks almost identical to the OP's pictures. Leaked out a ton of fluid in pretty much the exact same location and the rear is way low now. Of course, it could be running down from who knows where and just happens to be...

I think this happened to my truck last night but haven't had the chance to get under there and verify yet. Anyone know a mechanic in the Maryland area that will actually repair this? I called a Toyota shop I have had good experiences with and he immediately suggested replacing with traditional...

I have an Altima for daily commuting. We needed a big vehicle for moving the dog around and hauling things. What is a more reliable vehicle for $7k that you would actually want to own? I plan to hit some trails in the future, but right now time/money isn't permitting. Also, this is the first...

I should also mention the truck is stock other than these wheels and the crappy head unit (and amp delete...).

As much as I would love to say I'm wheelin every weekend, at the moment my truck is 99% street. I got it for what I think was a good deal but it came with some aftermarket wheels I don't care much for and on top of that one is rusting to the point where there is a slight leak in the winter when...
