Atacama sand, my favorite color.

Try the seal first. Its a lot less work then R&R&R diff.

Im not sure that Atacama sand, seems too light. Mine is Atacama sand and has a more "gold" look to it. Either way, that is one sharp Rover! And I agree, you can always go for the seal. Not sure how long you have had it, but it could have been damaged by an r&r of a half shaft axle.

Just White- the camera is just an iPhone. I bought it a year ago and have since done quite a bit of work. Wasn't expecting as much so soon, but hey, what can I do. Tons of positive comments when I am out and about. I have been wheelin' with a group here in the DC area- Def stands out, which is why I got it- some freakin' style :-)

They are Atturo Trail Blade M/T LT275 /65 R18- I saw them on some of Lucky8's Rovers and asked how they liked them-
For me so far so good :-)

Take my advice- have East Coast Gear Supply rebuild the rear and install a locker while it’s out.

Travis,
I had thought about that, but it seems more of a heavy lift than I initially thought. New ECU wiring etc....

I had them install ARBs front and rear. It makes off-roading so much easier!
