7 months storage/Iraq Before leaving last Feb, I changed the oil, took the battery out, full gas tank W/fuel stabilizer added, and put the car up on jack stands.
Got back, took the car down last night, and my oil was 1/2 quart low, but their was'nt any spots or puddles under the engine any where that I saw...
Thier was a stain about the size of a paper plate under the rear diff. I'm guessing my rear pinion seal needs fixed (again) I've had it done twice already, 43K.
and,this morning the Low Radiator light came on, but the radiator is full...
What am I looking at to fix my current problems?
What should I be checking/changing after storage?
Thanks guys.

Yea, your wife may have went to the tack a couple of times. Seems like she tore your differential up, damn 10 bolts.

I put it up on Jackstands to keep from getting flat spots in the tires more or less...
The wife did'nt get the car down... She does'nt like driving it.
My friend had rats go through his car while we were gone, and they chewed up the entire electrical system... like 1300 bucks to have it all replaced/fixed.
I put the LS6 manifold on today, more parts to follow ; )
