Re: Grand Cherokee Owners - Fight back!!
Yes, Matt.
There's some truth to that.
The third repair was done by another shop.
/they did tell me that very few mechanics are able to set up the Dana 44s
correctly particularly if they use the specs from Chrysler.
Chrysler specs them too tight.
This particular shop does a lot of these rear ends and they were very
critical of them.
