After some travel and then stopping I get a smell of hot fluid at the driver's rear tire area. No smell when sitting cold. I have found no leaks under the vehicle and i checked and added fluid to the rear axle housing. Still having that smell. Aim to check brake line for possible fluid in to drum, but looking for advice, Again I have not seen any leaks under the vehicle. I had suspicion that is might be related to the auto ride but not sure how since that is air operated. Please advise.
