Sunday afternoon I topped off the PS reservoir and Monday there was a 2x3' spot of red fluid under it. I assumed it was the PS pump and actually have a warranted pump on order. Was putting Manny tracks on the rear and couldn't jack up the front to get to it. However, today got under the front and realized the PS pump isn't the culprit. The leak is EITHER:
- Tranny dipstick tube. I replaced the Oring this weekend. Suspect for sure.
- Diff to tranny gasket. Lord I hope not. New gasket between the Manny tranny and the 'new' 321.
I put a ratchet on the diff bolts and they were tight...now they are tighter. I'm going to start the coach and let it idle and see if it starts to leak. Thoughts?
