WJ Issues
Well, a friend just recently sold his 03 WJ with 48K on it. He got real
disgusted with some all of a sudden issues. Both rear axle seals went while
he was on vacation. New seals and breaks no cost under warranty. Then his
front seals on both axle went some more head aches. Does any one know what
would cause this of course bad seals and not changing the differential oil
are a couple but is this an issue with WJs? One good thing that came out of
it is that he gave me 7 oil filters and 2 air filters free.

No idea unless a suspension lift had been improperly installed on it.
My wife has had two WJ Grand Cherokees with this one being a 2003 too
and both have been really good with no problems.

Re: WJ Issues
From all the posts about failed rear ends in vehicles made in the last 5
or 6 years or so by DC they obviously have done something wrong with the
design.
Not changing the oil in 48K is 'not' a reason for a failed rear end.
You don't hear of CJ or YJ or Cherokee rear end failures, but grands,
well... And a bunch of TJ's too????
