I’m used to being around a lot of Jeepers but sadly not so much anymore My guy isn’t as much into them as I am but this one is my baby and he doesn’t get it ... My ZJ is having major issues and I have to work tom I’m at a loss there is no bearing left on back passenger ,fluid everywhere and metal shavings .. rotor is grinding ..I got it home but now I gotta get it fixed and have never had to deal w this with all 4 Jeeps I’ve had .. not sure where to start what to do what happened what caused it ....uggggh just too much . I have a parts Jeep that I can swap the whole rear end out , would that be easier ? Any help is appreciated guys ... especially if any of you are in my neck of the woods Thanks for reading if nothing else
It's hard to tell but it sounds like your rear wheel bearing exploded. It's not a horrible job to fix but requires some specialty tools like a press, slide hammer with he right attachments, and a cutting wheel or dremal. Your probs best off swapping in a junkyard axle which at most would just take spring compressors for specialty tools. And you can typically rent those for free from a local parts store.
