The first thing I would check is the condition of the finals. Bring along a 5 gal bucket and some tools to grab some oil samples. You need to remove the finals drain plug by sliding the drawbar out of the way. Look for water and metal, you should see this by dropping less than a cupful. Another method is cutting open the finals oil filter above the axle on the left side. Use a tin snips and cut over your bucket and the mess isn't too bad.
