hey all. long time lurker here. first off tyty to all who post here. the knowledge on these boards is incredible. my question is i have a 98 lc w 293k and recently had a local shop do some work on cv axles. they notice a weeping rear transfer case and attempted to replace seals. they also quickly realized it was above their pay grade. what i have now is a loose snap ring (?) between rear drive shaft and transfer case. im just wondering if its safe to drive and if so how critical is repair. no local shops will touch it so i would have to go to dealer. and again you guys rock.
