My dad has a '99 Jeep Grand Cherokee (4.7 V8), that is in OK shape, needing only new shocks (OE at 125k), tweeters (blown - common problem), headunit (FM station = little to no reception), and the evap code taken care of (now emissions exempt til 09) thanks to it.
One of the MAJOR annoyances though, since its his daily driver, is that the rear end howls, BAD. It is definately coming from the rear end, and have heard it to be somewhat of a common problem.
What I would like to know is that, A) what is the problem, and B) approximately how much would it cost to fix? Obviously depending on how involved it is, it may not even be worth it (99 w/125k on it).. but if its something that could just lock up anyday, well then it would be vital to get it taken care of.
Thanks
