Project TJ - working on my 1997 Jeep Wrangler. It's the SE version of a TJ with a 2.5L four cylinder and a standard transmission with a Dana 35 rear differential. At the time of making this video, the Jeep had ~204,000 miles on it.
Continuing to chase the noise in the rear end of the Jeep. This time I’m replacing the rear wheel bearings and seals. A bit of a longer video to describe my noise problem and show more of a how-to on removing the axles and replacing the bearing and seal. Also threw in some comments on rear drum brakes for good measure. At the end of the day (video), TDSR continues to live up to its name. More content to come because of it!
