Update: I’m going to be sitting in the Rapid City, SD area until I get the axle seal issue fixed. I’m fairly certain the bearing has been shot for a while. I tried to fix this myself in the middle of nowhere (huge risk on my part) , but could not get the axle shaft out of the tube. So put it all back together and will need a shop to do it. My guess is a new seal, bearing, and shaft(which may need to be ordered) This was the last thing I was expecting to go wrong since I had this axle proactively taken care of with all new seals and bearings within the last year. I’m guessing a faulty bearing since I had no issues at all before I had the maintenance done. I will find out soon enough. Till then, I am stuck lol.
