    So some days my brake chambers have some fluid on them and I am concerned my differential is leaking or something of that nature. What could be causing this? Most days it is dry but some days it looks like this… of course file is too big to upload so i cant upload the pictures……Any advice would be appreciated

    Could be oil from diffs or wheel seal.
    Grease sling from driveline.
    Liquified grease due to high summer temps dripping out of s-cam bushings or slack adjusters.

    Then it can't be oil or grease.

    You don't have to take a pic in 20 megapixels. Reduce the quality setting of the camera before taking the pic.

    Drain the water from your air tanks.
