The boots are fine checked those as well while I was checking the brake lines and everything else near that area. I’ve had boots rip on my other cars and they make a mess in the inner wheel. Other possibility is that I ran over some oil while driving but can’t seem to find any areas when back tracking the drive. Didn’t go to all the places of course I went too but may later today just to see if I get more fluids to drip. Plus I think I would have noticed that while driving. Is it common for shocks to leak when going bad?
