I have an 01 XJ Limited, 242, 6.5" Rusty's lift, Tom Woods SYE and Driveshaft. I have had this setup for about a year now.
Today I was driving, heard a noise, and then my XJ started shaking almost like the driveshaft was unbalanced. So I pulled over and looked underneath but everything looked fine to me . I couldn't tell where the noise came from because I was immediately distracted from the shaking. I was close to home so I drove it home but it shook like crazy under acceleration and less when letting off the gas but it was still shaking. Well I parked it and ran some errands (1/2 hour later) and when I returned there was transmission fluid dripping from the rear of the transfer case and a spot about the size of a dollar on the ground. I didn't want to attempt to put it in 4WD at all, just in case I would really mess something up in the transfer case. I can put my XJ in Reverse and Drive without any odd noises or anything like that. It just shakes bad when I attempt to drive it at all over 5-10mph.
Anyone have any ideas on what this could be?
Thanks for any help!
