    Morning all! First post here and wanted to say HI! Coming from a Toyota family, just checking out this nation. I have an 08 with just shy of 200k on the ticket.

    After hearing a brake hum in the rear for the last month or so, I decided to tear into it.

    Oh but to my surprise, looks like axle seals may be into the mix as well!. See that the vent is plugged right on the axle so will be performing that mod first!

    Thanks guys in advance for all the support!
