may have a rear brake leak, what is wrong?

[thorridder]

ok so these last couple days when washing the trcuk i notice a liquid on the inside of the tires in a line, today it sat all day and noticed it coming from the T joint on the axle and its on the inside of the rear brake and down the tire, as in the pic. what is wrong?

It looks like the rear brake line T may be leaking.

How is the braking power? Any loss of pressure?

Ever replaced the seals on that rear axle before?

 

[thorridder]

braking doesnt seem different.

it was all changed about 3 months ago when i got new gears

check the pistons in the drum first then the t-fitting on the brake line, above the center of the diff. it looks like the T is already leaking. if the pistons for the shoes aren't leaking then check the axle seal

 

[thorridder]

i can look tomorrow, and maybe take it back to the shop that did the gears
