rear axle

So, just finished swapping my track-lok carrier out for a factory spicer open case. However, when the rear axle is jacked up, both wheels spin the same direction? Im not missing any parts and I am almost positive I installed everything correctly. Drives fine but just wondering as it is very...

I just got a 99 wrangler all stock except it's sitting on 31s with 15x8 rims, so the wheels stick out from the flares a bit. Since they stick out it wasn't until some time later i noticed the front axle is offset to the driver's side by maybe an inch. I noticed the lower control arm mount on the...

Over the winter of '22-'23, I had an issue that forced me to go ahead with a Super35 install, so I thought I'd post a cost breakdown for anyone looking into a Super35 setup. After looking for a Dana 44 for about a year and doing the math, I decided a Super35 setup was the most cost effective route...

stock differential? 2003 sport. I bought his jeep about a year ago and doing maintenance on it. I replace all of the front brakes, calipers, rotors etc. already. Doing the rear now and mainly find out why the parking (emerg) brake barely holds even though the cable is pulled tight, it holds some...

Hi all, I recently purchased a 1997 wrangler sport, it has a ford 8.8 rear axle with discs. I’m looking to install my parking brake, none of those components were swapped over. I have what appears to be the mounting brackets for the parking brake, but I don’t have any of the pads, springs, or...

1998 Jeep Wrangler (SE) - was my first car when I was 16, just got it back after all these years (same exact car). Changed out the tires to 31x10.5x15 (no lift) and now I have shaking and loud noise after a few weeks of driving on the new tires. Shot the attached video to try and get a look at...

I’m trying to figure out a sound coming out of what appears to be my rear, driver-side wheel when I make left turns on the street. I'm sure it happens on the trail, but it started happening since March, and I haven't taken it anywhere. It's a 2006 TJ Rubicon 6-sp 4.0L, 5.5” long-arm lift (4-bar...

Been chasing a "clunk" for some time now. It only happens the first time braking after changing direction from forward<->reverse. Getting out of parking spaces is a great example of the conditions for the clunk. Threw a couple of GoPros under the chassis and saw that the brake caliper jumps...

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...

What would you say is the minimum amount of threads I should have from the rear lower control arms when installing a new axle? I was hoping to better center my rear wheels in the wheel wells by pushing the axle back a little, but run out of threads on my adjustable arms before it's perfectly...

I bought a Ford 8.8 and in the process of shaving all the bracketry off and doing all the seals and bearings. I'm planning on doing a truss kit because I think it will all be easier in the long run rather than individual brackets for everything and getting the geometry right on all of it. The...

I'm planning on replacing my entire rear axle Dana 35 1:3.73 on my TJ Sport 4.0L Manual. My current setup has ABS and I found a 2000 TJ Sport 4.0L Manual that a local is parting out, but he's not sure it has ABS. Can I replace an ABS rear with a non-ABS rear?

This axle is on a 2004 Columbia Edition, I'm new to Jeepdom and can't quite tell if this is a 44 or 35. I can pick this Jeep up for $10k. Here are the specs... 162k miles automatic Repainted 4-5 years ago. 3 tops - Hard, soft, bikini. New stereo. Barricade front bumper. Brand new never been...

Hey all, ive got a 2003 Rubicon and I've been reading up on changing my passenger side rear axle seal on my Dana 44. When I got down to start I noticed the PO put on some spacers and used loctite to secure the spacer to the studs. When I went to remove them I could only get three off while the...
