The lift never came with axle shims and i wonder if this is the problem?? I was also contemplating a T-case drop and maybe the the axle shims as an SYE alternative.. I seem to be the only guy with the seal leaking issue??? As for vibes they don't bother me. I just want to stop leaving oil all over the adirondacks!!! Anyone else out there in the same boat?? what do I do??
Ok, let's start by looking at the angle of your driveshaft. With the RC 3 in lift your angle is probably off unless you have the TC drop on. Also, I would save up to go with the SYE. If your angle is off you can get 2 or 4 degree shims to help until the SYE. As far as the leak goes coming from your rest yoke? I presume? I've attached a picture for you to see if your yoke looks like this, it could cause leaks if you have that groove even replacing the seal. Well hope something I've said helps.

Default EGR Valve

Hi there. Noob question, but I have a 2001 WJ whose engine just blew. In ordering another, the question has come up whther i have an EGR valve or not. I've searched EGR, ERG Valve, etc, the forum indicates that "The following words are either very common, too long, or too short and were not included in your search: EGR". So I'm having some trouble locating an image or spec or anything that would help me locate the EGR valve on my WJ. I can't even find a decent google image of what or where the EGR would be. HALP! And thanks in advance.

Google was a bit more friendly for me. It is the exhaust gas re circulation valve. Here is the first link I clicked.

I'd try replacing the flasher relay first, then move to multifunction stick.
