noticed a softball size puddle of oil/fluid under my truck today. Crawled underneath to find it leaking from the furthest rear passenger cab mount. 2019 Ram 1500 crew cab. any ideas? truck is under warranty and dealer said I was nuts..... are these fluid filled? Also would this cause an on and off vibration while towing above 68 MPH (vibration stops when I hit a bump then resumes). cab mount 1.jpg

I suspect it's water leaking out that was trapped in the frame rail. I had the same thing happen when I removed one of the tow hook bolts that goes into the frame. Water is probably getting in there from the AC drain leaking onto the passenger side frame rail.

There is no fluid. Something spilled on the floor could eventually make it's way to that area of the floor, and then leak down the threads of the mount bolt.

Let me put this to rest for those of you that don’t believe there is any fluid in the body mounts.
2019 Ram Rebel. This was AFTER I wiped it all off. Not water, slippery oily substance.
