Wow that doesnt sound good tom...

I had my truck in the shop for the oil change yesterday and checked my
diffs.. this wet, flooded fall & winter has really taken a toll on my lube,
I gotta change it out but of course it is friggin raing here in Illinois,
again. Weather forecast says it will be nice and clear when I head back to
work.....
