Greetings

I have a GQ patrol and I went through a deep water crossing. After removing one of the bolts when checking the swivel hub, water came out (only on one side). I have checked dif and there was no water entry there.
What should my next step be?

remove a FWH's both sides and see if any water has been sucked past the seals ,
hot diffs and cold water not a good combo

Mudrunner's thread will help you heaps. I used a fine wet'n'dry on the axle housing so the seals don't get chewed out again.
