Upper and Lower Ball Joints $100-$120 plus tax Do It Your self but you will need an alignment.
Tranny leaks? Check the rear seal. look under the car and seel if ther is a stripe of tranny fliud by the drive shaft. About $50 bucks at Amco. If the tranny dipstick is loose, even less. On some Mavs, like mine, the tranny dipstick is held in place by one of the bolts holding on the starter, a lazy guy may have over looked this and that is why your leaking..
Did you change the rear end ot tire size with out changing the drive and driven gears? Pain in the butt but doable.
Seems to me you are only looking at $400 or so over the next 7 months.
