is the front drive shaft turns even though you are not in 4HI, im talking about the drive shaft from the transfer case to the front differential
Do this one turn even in 2 wheel drive?

Thanx for the reply, the reason i asked is because i got an oil leak in
my transfer case and i guess it coming out from the seal. I need to go to
the stealership tomorrow coz its still under warranty.

Does anyone know if how long will it take to change the seal? if its the culprit?

I dont know if they would keep that seal in stock. Thats the first time ive ever heard of that seal leaking on here.


The time thing depends on your dealer. It took my dealer 2 hours to just pull my jeep in one day. Actually doing the job should be under 2 hours I would say.

serious leak
