    93 stub axle isn't the same as 98

    So I broke a passenger axle stub on my Michigan rusted out 98’ 4cyl Manual and luckily I have a friend with a bone yard. Stole a new stub from a 93 hoping they were the same as I read on the Internet... They aren’t. The u joint caps on my old one are bigger. However the part listings everywhere...

    SOLD Stock Dana 35 with 4.11 gears

    Pulled my rear Dana 35 when I did an engine swap to upgrade. Jeep has about 130k on the clock. No issues with the rear end at all. Just doing a V8 so I upgraded my rear axle instead of constantly snapping shafts. Axle is complete, still has all the fluids in it. I'm guessing the PO serviced it at...

    Upgrading axles versus upgrading diffs?

    I have a reasonably stock 1998 TJ 2.4L that has a 4 inch lift, and the 29inch tires that I got with it feel like I'm disgracing it, so I've been looking at upgrading. Everything is on a budget, but I'm not trying to make stupid mistakes and cut corners that could come back to bite me, so I've...

    Will a Dana 30 and Dana 35 hold up?

    Hello all, I have recently bought a 1999 TJ, full stock. I have plans to get a 4in. suspension lift and 33s or 35s. My only thought is the axles, I have factory Dana 30 Front and Dana 35 Rear. My main use for it will be for road trips and daily driving, but I do want to do some light offroading...

    2004 Dana 44 Driver Side Front Axle Shaft Removal

    Guys I need major help. I have a 2004 Rubicon and I broke an Axle Shaft at the U-Joint. I watched some videos on how to remove it and it looked easy enough.

    How compatible is a JK Dana 44 with a TJ?

    Looking at going to a Dana 44 in my '97 TJ but not finding any off a TJ Rubicon in my budget. I did find one off a JK Rubicon not too far away and a decent price though. How compatible are these 2 axles? I know I could pick one up from various other vehicles for a decent price, but the main...

    On the hunt for new rear axle in 98 TJ

    My dana35 rear diff, pinions, and bearings are all shot in my 98 sahara. To rebuild the axle the parts cost would be roughly 1400 not including labor. I don't think its worth it to put that much into the Dana 35, so I'm looking at swapping it for a Dana 44 or 8.8. What is my best option considering it...

    Dana 35: Correct Wheel Seal Installation?

    Does anyone know if I have this seal installed correctly? This is a Dana 35 on my 2001 Jeep Wrangler TJ. This started as a brake job and then morphed into a bunch of work on the rear axle. When I removed the old brake drum on the drivers side I found the brakes coated in oil. I replaced the...

    Help! What Axles?

    New Wrangler TJ owner here. I need help determining what axle type I have. It is a 2005 Wrangler X I did do some research and found that they are most likely Dana 30's but I just want to make sure. Also, what are your suggestions on getting heavier duty axles for off-roading? I've read that the...

    Ford 8.8 Axle Swap

    The factory Dana 35 rear axle found in most TJ Wranglers is a little on the light side, and if you run larger-than-stock tires, you’re likely looking at an eventual failure. If you want to turn really big tires, wheel abusively, or push gobs of power into your rear axle, you’ll probably want to...

    Axle Painting

    Okay, so after a ton of research and some experiments I finally painted the 1992 Dana 30 high pinion I took out of a trashed MJ. (Re-gear/locker install will start in about two weeks when my last duck is fully dressed and covered.) I won't go into all my reasons, but this is what I finally...
