Changing the differential fluid is pretty easy and cheap. If the seal is leaking, you will still lose fluid. It might quiet down for a bit. I agree with the others, these Jeeps are noisy.

Hey folks,
I wanted to give a little update. I changed the three u-joints on the front drive shaft and greased up the balljoint in the double cardan joint as well. I just got this completed this weekend but it seems the noise has stopped. I’m going to drive it some more this week and check back. Thanks for all the suggestions. Slowly I’m getting all the maintenance that’s been neglected on this thing done.
