    Yeh they are leaking a little but id say mudding and driving through sandy water would be the cause of the leaks, it would make more sense since the bearings arnt bad. I top off the fluid every 5,000 or so miles till I can get around to rebuilding the case, its easy to do, takes 5 minutes, only takes a few ounces of fluid and the fluid inside isnt contaminated.

    Incase I didnt mention I have a wildlife refuge across the street from my house, I spend alot of time in the sand there, I try to stay out of the mud but now and then I run across a stranded motorist (stuck in the mud).

    Ow? Has anyone run into the problem of the panal on the hood cracking??? Mines been cracked since I bought it but I finished the job. Im in the prosses of fixing the crack and im gona cover over it with carbon fiber vinyl. Ow, you might here from all the hummer guys in the near future, I peeled all the isuzu and VX badges off, im putting HUMMER H5-VX special edition on the back, I like seeing people scratching there heads. In my free time I might just go to the hummer dealer and screw with them for S&G. Cant wait to see the faces of the guys at the gate at the next base I go to also.
