Default Whats that puddle under my jeep??!!??

we were walking out to the jeep tonight and the wife noticed a puddle under the front of the jeep... immediatly my heart sank.. after about 20 seconds of inspection i found it to be the steering stabalizer leaking oil... so, it's not a big deal i am just curious if anyone else has had this problem and what it could be from? i have 2.5 tf lift and that is all that is done to it.
also you can recommend a brand to me if you like yours

I lik the pre-dented Superlift Steering Stabilizer , It coming pre-dented and not leaking was a plus to the craftsmanship of this fine stabilizer!

The dents can be covered by the asst. stickers they send

I think some people on here have experienced it, I know I've read it but can't remember where it is. Should be a dealer re-placement though, I think people with non-lifted jeeps had that prob also. Fot what it's worth, I'd just order an aftermarket one, be better than letting the dealer handle it IMO

yeah, i'll probably just order an aftermarket. i do wheel it and i have a lift so i wouldn't feel right making someone else pay for what i tore up. plus i am a firm believer in the Break It Mod It club.
it just randomly started leaking today though and i haven't done anything rough on it sinch december (as far as rocks would go, just sand and mud since then)

Talking Me too

I kinda broke mine... No rocks for me, yet, but During a diff cover install, Venom noticed my leaky steering stab. It is more fun to drive a vehicle that doesn't behave all the time

Are you sure it was that? I came out in the parking lot of Kroger and saw a puddle under mine. My heart sank too. I got under there and stuck my finger in and I swear it smell like piss! Then I looked across from my Jeep and saw the chromed out H2 with a "Hummer Rescue" sticker on it and realized my JK had simply peed itself laughing.
