Yeah, that seems to be a GL problem. Though I didn't have this issue with my M1010 (bought via a MV dealer, not GL directly) my front steering dampner was crushed and you could see marks on the diff cover where someone used a fork lift to raise the front, likely to replace the front wheels/tires.
I so need to get a GV OD for mine!!! I just put 35" tires on so hopefully that will help a little but the GV is definitely coming. Talked to ORD this morning about some lift stuff too.
