Re: Dana 35c gear oil used
 

It is coming out at the very back of the frame. The fuel inlet to the
tank is soaking wet. I believe the hose is in place. What I don't know
is why after driving for a while, why is it leaking? Pressure? temp?
wrong grade oil? I checked it tonight and its about a quarter inch from
the bottom of the drain hole. What is causing it to spit out after
driving a while?

I am tomorrow, they used 75w140 and an additive. I don't tow with this
jeep. How would they know to use an additive?

Re: Dana 35c gear oil used
 

It sounds like you have bad or incompatible oil or a bad mix of oil. The
manual for this vehicle, which I have, recommends Mopar Gear Oil (yeah,
whatever), 75W90 API-GL5 or 80W140 for towing. I am pretty sure I have some
kind of 80W90 in mine. They recommend a level one half inch below the fill
hole. I recommend a synthetic if you live where it is real cold. I can't
imagine why 75w140 vs 80w90 would cause foaming, unless your local oil
change place found a real cheap supplier.

I think maybe it is time to call them, and ask nicely what the hell they did
to your car.

Re: Dana 35c gear oil used
 

Have you looked to see if you have water in your differential?
It'll look like a whipped up chocolate malt.
