    The sound is of something that is popping or hitting something. It’s pretty loud to where I can feel each pop on the steering wheel.

    Hello, looking for a differential carrier for dana 44 rear end. My old trac loc spider gears and clutch pack wore out. Would be interested in a good set of spider gears and clutches. Or any compatible complete carrier would do!

    Need Advice: Are these Dana Gears Done?

    Please see the video. I honestly don't know if these gears are "done". Could use some advice. If I can, my goal is to leave them as is and just keep driving the jeep. What are the pros/cons of that plan? Also, am I correct, these are the spider gears, right? Info: 2001 Jeep Wrangler Sport...
