axle

I just upgraded to chromoly. front Dana 30 27 spline OEM axle shafts. about 5k miles on sealed Spicer 5-760x u-joints. Ran with 32's and an open diff. Includes ABS tone rings but you don't need ABS to use them. The middle part of the passenger side shaft is cleaner because it's been in an 80s...

What did I do wrong? 3 days ago I replaced me rear axle seal and bearing. Last night as I was pulling into a parking spot at work my axle came undone. The retainer plate basically pulled off everything that was pressed on my axle. Left it all in the tube. I pressed everything on the correct...

I’ve finally gotten around to throwing the Dana 44 in that I bought about a month ago. I went to inspect the diff before filling it and I found this piece of the inner most clutch disk on passenger side, sitting in the pocket under the pinion,hiding in leftover fluid. Half of that plate is...

out of the interest of experience, I have a stock dana 30 and 35 with 3.07 gears from a tj laying around, and i found a 2002 liberty with Dana 30 and Dana 35 with 3.73 gearing and Trac Lok. I know swapping a used ring and pinion alone are a PIA, but if i take the ring and carrier with Trac lock out as a...

Still a newbie and need help identifying this leak. Noticed some dampness near the front axle end (drive side only). Is this common, and does it need immediate attention?

I am looking at swapping out my ball joints this weekend. Is it absolutely necessary to have to remove the axle to remove the ball joints, or is there another way. If I have to remove the axle, is it as easy as sliding it out and sliding back in? Do I have to mark the spline and put it...

Recently my jeep developed a very loud squeak from the front passenger side wheel. The squeak seems to be louder at lower speeds, and it speeds up and slows down with the rotation of the tire. It occurs regardless of brake pressure, and will happen only when I'm turning (direction doesn't...

Good Day! I recently got my first Jeep, 1997 Wrangler! Dream come true finally, now I need to give it some well deserved TLC. I've been doing little things like fixing blinkers, lights, fluids and such. Along the way I've noticed some things that I need advice on. I've attached a diagram and...

Hi all, am new here. Have owned my TJ for about 8 months now and have just started to build it up. I am looking at regear/lockers next. I have read a million different things and found so many different opinions online, so figured I'd state my specific case here for some specific help... I run...

Looking to run a bigger tire size on my 97 TJ, currently has the Dana 35 re-geared to 4.10 I believe. Put 36s on and from what I've read a stock 35 won't handle that 36x13.50 for too long. Friend of mine has 36s on his jeep and the rear-end has gone out 2 times so he is putting in a ford 9-inch...

So a while back I got in a bad accident and now my rear left wheel is sitting kinda cock eyed. I thought it was where the wheel meets the brake since the back drum plate and the guts of the drum brake were bent to shit. But in order to replace the drum plate with the new one (in pic) I need to...

For sale is a high pinion Dana 30 axle out of a late 90’s Jeep XJ. Was most recently installed in a 2000 TJ. Has been modified for a front Savvy 3 Link setup and 2” front stretch. This axle would make for almost plug-and-play for front TJ’s and LJ’s. I am happy to discuss what it would take to...

I’m swapping an 07 jk rear axle into my 97 TJ. I don’t want to have wheels with different lug patterns. I can’t find spacers with a 5x5 to 5x4.5 lug pattern. Anybody done this swap or have other options?

After a cross country move a month back my automatic '04 6-cylinder started clicking from the front(at one point during the trip, I was traveling on a bumpy forest road and the vehicle simply stopped moving forward on its own. I was in 4WD at the time. I immediately turned off the vehicle and...

2004 Jeep LJ Auto 42RLE Dana 30/Dana 44 Have 35s waiting to be put on. I’ve seen recommendations for my setup at 5.38 gears, but the front Dana 30 can only do 5.13. Should i try to find a front rubicon Dana 44 to get the larger size R&P to fit? Plan on building both axles up to support 35s with either choice...

Hello! I’m looking for a Dana 44 front axle, this guy on FB Marketplace says he has a Dana 30 with the factory 4.10 gears from a 2004 sport, but they didn’t come with those gears, I’ve attached pictures. Could someone tell my by the picture if this is a Dana 30 or 44? If it’s a 44 then is it in good...

My TJ has the Dana 35 and 30 and I want to run 35s. My question is, can I get away with this combo? I would also upgrade brakes and steering because those aren’t as expensive. The Jeep mostly sees forest service roads and mud, so no heavy wheeling.

I am selling a Ford 8.8 rear end from a 2007 Ford F150 XL 2WD. I recently swapped it for a Ford 9.75" rear end, so I cannot send it in as a core. The ring and pinion has significant slop, which is the reason it was removed. It will have to be regeared. It still has the worn out factory 3.55...
