gear

Hey fellow, jeepers, I am looking for input and suggestions. I have a 1997, 4.0/5 speed manual with a 6 inch lift 35 inch tires, and factory 3.07 gears in a Dana 35 rear and Dana 30 front. I recently noticed a significant leak coming from my front pinion seal. I also have a little bit of noise coming...

Now that my 2003 X has become my daily driver, I’m looking for some advice on ways to create a more capable off-reader that still holds its own on the highways. I live in Central Texas, so being able to drive 75mph is a must if I’m going to get anywhere. Right now, I’ve got the 4.0L with...

I pulled some junkyard axles with 4.10 ratio (stock axles on 4 cylinder automatic) planning to swap them into my Jeep (still running stock 3.07). The axles I pulled kinda look like they're in bad shape and very rusted. I've spent a few hours already stripping scale off and here's where I'm at...

AutoZone remanufactured steering gear part number 7525. Should fit TJ’s 98 to 02 among other models. Never installed just been sitting in the garage for a year now. Local pick up or I can ship at buyers expense. It will fit in a flat rate box so probably about $20 or so

Hey y’all...did a quick search and didn’t see anything on this topic...I have an 06 LJ with the 6 speed. I’m having issues shifting into the even gears because the shifter is running into the tub cutout. It’s only recently become a problem. It seems like the driveline is out of alignment, but I...

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. First time poster, long time viewer. I'll apologize now if I accidentally offend anyone or step on any sacred topics. I'll thank @mrblaine and others now for the advice that's forthcoming. My Jeep. 1997 TJ Wrangler Sahara hardtop. 4.0, 32RH, NP231, Dana 30 / 35... most things are...

Hey guys. Most of the time I see steering gear issues it’s related to leaking. Well so far I don’t have any leaks, but damn do I have a lot of slop (see video). I adjusted the lash and it did not fix the problem. Is this steering gear gone? The u-joints are brand new MOPAR, and the play is at...

I recently started to experience some issues putting my car into second gear (grinding). I am deliberate with my shifting and haven't pushed the vehicle to any extremes. At times I have no problems shifting into second, and other times I experience some grinding or it disengages the gear...

My Jeep is my daily driver. I love her very much but man, putting my foot to the floor to get up that highway hill, the low mpg, the slight jurky jurk past 60mph... I love all these qualitys, hense, well duh the 2.5L... but online I only find resources for off roading tire information. Could we...

I'm upgrading my rear diff cover so I need to buy some gear oil. I have been reading through the forum and have decided I will go with a non-synthetic oil. Just wanting some recommendations on what weight to get I don't tow but I live in Colorado so the winter temps can get very cold. Secondly I...

Hey, so I'll be putting on 35's to my 1999 TJ with a 4" lift. Now I hear about re gearing so the car will run better, and so I'm confused with the chart about what I really need. So I was wondering what gear ratio I need for my build? I was told 4.0 by Extreme Terrain but I did the equation from...

So I searched and couldn’t find much info on the perfect tool bag. I’ll grab some ideas of others in the comments below and myself and compose a tool bag for our beloved TJs. Things to consider going in it obviously tools to cover most “road/trail side fixes” to recovery straps and gear. The...

Okay so I think I know what this is and how to fix it but before I do I wanted to hear your opinions. 2004 Jeep TJ Sahara 4x4. Automatic Oil pressure sits perfect while Rpms are higher than nuetral. But once I place the Jew in park OR I’m in drive and sitting at a red light my oil pressure...

I've searched the threads but cannot come to a conclusion for what to regear my jeep to, or what it would take to get locking differential(s). This is my Jeep: 2004 TJ Sport 4.7L Stroker Dana 44 Front and Rear Axle (Geared to 3.73) NV3550 5 Speed Transmission NP231 Transfer Case 4" Zone...
