2002 Bravada Front Diff Case Busted.

Hello,

2002 Bravada started having the binding turn problem about 9 months ago. We had the transfer case fluid replaced and problem got slightly better but never went away. About month ago I noticed what I thought was a small oil leak. Well the other day I go in the garage and a see oil all over the place where the wife had parked the night before. I found 3 or 4 pieces of broken diff case when I removed the plastic skid plate. I think it is busted on top somewhere and I think the gears are okay.

Anyone ran into this before?

I friend of mine that used to work at the GM dealership here said that there was a recall on the case where they were to install a washer on the rear most bolt to help with alignment and one of the problems was that it could cause the case to crack. I cannot find any info about it on the web though.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Scott
