Should i trust anyone but the dealer?

Yes, in my experience, you should trust anyone but the dealer. Well, maybe your dealer is more reliable than the one here..... That's why I go to LOST school every day, to learn how to service my KJ myself...

I doubt if I'd tackle a main seal though.....

Wild guess...let's say 4 hours labor@$80/hr and probably 30 bucks for the part at the stealership. Vatozone's website says $4.99 for the rear main seal, but it doesn't show a front main.

This is an interesting comment. When i originally saw that I thought that there would be no way that it would be the oil pan. I did get underneath my jeep tonight. I actually had some time to really look at it. It's really hard to tell whether its coming from the bottom of the front main seal or the very front of the oil pan. I did try and tighten the front couple of oil pan bolts. They were already tight but they did turn just a hair. (Not enought to make a diff. though i think)

I checked my oil level and it has not dropped at all so its not leaking a ton. Just enough to make a mess all over there.

I called my dealer and they gave me a quote of ~380.00 I said they must not have to remove the engine or anything and he was like yeah must not it only says 3.5 hours of labor @89 dollars /hr.

What do you think?

darn i'm good!:D

This is one of those things that I think I'd rather pay somebody else to do it, myself. just too much of a pain in the butt for me to worry about...plus if it gets F'd up i don't have to fix it
