[QUOTE="UABYJ94, post: 276895, member: 1869"] I found a spot of gear oil under the chunk of the 3rd member on the 9 in. After further inspection I found a crack along the bottom of the chunk and a glob of weld that I hadn't paid any attention to prior to this. I knew I had just cleaned out the chunk and resealed the 3rd member and this wasn't suppose to be on the floor. here is the crack and the blob...

Here is the repairs I did and added some layers to put some meat back on there..
