Hey Guys,
Just picked up a 2001 DII SD with 151k miles. I recently noticed oil accumulating on the driveway under the transfer case. Doing some reading I've found this to be a somewhat common occurrence. I haven't tried to locate the filler plug yet but how hard/easy is it to keep topped off? And how often should I check? It's a very small amount each day, a few drops.
Should I get it fixed? What are my options for repair? I see some transfer cases on ebay for $250 but the job looks like a real knuckle buster. Are these leaky seals easy to fix or should it be replaced? Or should I not even bother given the miles and fact that I only use the car on rare occasions to move a trailer around.
Thanks.
