problem #2

Apr 112000

Wrangler 4WD

  • Manual transmission
  • miles
Noticed oil leaking. Had the vehicle serviced at the dealer who put a new seal on. After a second seal was put on, took it to the dealer to have the torque turning checked on the rear pinion gear. Was told that the bearings were all bad and needed to be replaced. Also, they had to rebuilt the rear end.
