This is a persistent problem on my ´93. I wonder. Do any ´94 and later 4x4
owners have problems with this as well, or has Dodge fixed this?
The fix can´t be new seals (since we´ve all used Mopar parts...). Since the
problem is worst on the passenger side, where the axle is longer, I suspect
the problem is that the axle wobbles a bit in the bearing. My next fix will
be to have the axle bearing area metal sprayed to build it up a bit over
the spec diameter (you folks think five thou ought to do it?). I can do
this because I have spares!
