Output Shaft Bearing
Hey everyone, what I thought was a propeller shaft bearing issue, turns out to be an issue within the transfer case, we think it's the output shaft bearing. Anyone have any experience or anything with swapping this out? I know it's mostly a dealer only part, but, any guidance is appreciated...- 03LibertyLimited

Rear Propeller Shaft
I found the issue is not the propeller shaft failing, but something within the transfer case heating up, causing the boots on the propeller shaft to melt, grease everywhere, causing the part to fail. Frontward facing output shaft bearings are now the parts in question. Time for a new thread...- 03LibertyLimited

I'll do that. If it can help others avoid this problem, then...I'll post it on here. I'll break out the good camera and take pictures of the installation. I'm looking at Youtube videos and seeing that these may need to be installed and have a break-in time. Is this a driving break-in or a...- 03LibertyLimited

No, when it comes to grease, I know it's used to lubricate and cool things, so I packed as much in there as I could. We dipped it in some clean synthetic oil, put the bottom of the shaft together, greased it good, middle disc shaped part, then greased it, then filled the cap with even more...- 03LibertyLimited

Rear Propeller Shaft
Amen to that! I'm hoping to have this fixed by tomorrow evening. We've got snow and ice in the forecast again soon, and my girlfriend has 3 kids, and when mommy's Caliber can't get through the snow, my Jeep has to be the one to chauffeur everyone around, which...honestly, I don't mind, leather...- 03LibertyLimited

Don't have time to deal with shipping and paperwork, emails, etc. Dorman makes good stuff, I just think we're doing something wrong with installation. I can have a new one shipped from the DC in Indianapolis, have it the same day or next morning and have a lifetime warranty. I can actually opt...- 03LibertyLimited

Rear Propeller Shaft
Yeah, we packed it full of grease. I just got the end versus the whole shaft assembly. The end was $141, my cost, entire shaft was $340. Definitely don't have the $340 laying around. We greased everything inside good and solid though, rotated everything around, it was full of grease.- 03LibertyLimited

Hey ya'll. Name here is Trey, I'm driving a 2003 Jeep Liberty Sport. It's got the 3.7L 4x4 engine and tranny. Figured I'd post some artsy-ish pictures I took this weekend when I went around to check out some dirt and mud. :)- 03LibertyLimited
