Just had one of those moments.

Just pumping up the hydro and heard a thud and looked under the car and saw a puddle on the ground and fluid leaking on the ground.

Thought too myself id blown a hydro bag but thankfully it was just water dripping from when I washed the engine down

I suspect ball joint seating. I just changed out the ball joints and well everything else looked ok.
