Any particular reason why? I have to pay international shipping for getting
things here. There are two problems with that: (1) not all vendors export
out of USA; and (2) its cheaper to ship a bigger lot from same place than
have bits shipped from different vendors.
I went to the website and did not find any trackbars? All I found which was
Alumi-Flex was the tie rod! My tie rod is fine and I don't want to change
things I don't have to.
Thanks

I did change the speedo gear, but on a TJ the speedo gear on the back of the
transfer case and there is no leakage from that side. Instead the droplets
were towards the front of the transmission. I have driven it all day today
and no droplets of any kind, anywhere. Any other ideas? Its raining
heavily outside, otherwise I was thinking about looking at the dried stain
to see where it came from.
