Default leaking diff

Any one else having issues with there front dana 35 diff cover leaking? I just noticed it while I was trying to find a radiator leak. Turns out my radiator overflow can is loose. Every time I was in the ruff I had that radiator fluid smell from it banging around. I hate going in to the dealership!

Default Same thing...

My '07 Unlimited had the same problem, front D35 cover leaking at 13,000 miles...took it to my dealership and they took the cover off, re-gasket-ed it and put sealent under each of the bolt heads under warranty...no recurrance of the problem after 3,000 more miles.

Screw the dealer! Invest in some LubeLocker diff gaskets.
