From Ford, it is there van line. I am also in the same boat with the brakes since I upgraded my axels. Here is what I found so far.

What are you looking for? I can check the yard here in the Fort Worth area. I paid $100 for a Ford 9". I have a non C-clip D35 out of my 88 XJ that has welded spiders with new brakes you can have for $50. Oh and I powder coated the diff cover grey as a bonus :)

My God, your bio shows your 40, what’s with the “my dad can beat up your dad” crap? Last post I will put up here. There are allot of good people on here but the few of you immature clowns do not make it worth it.

This is what I mean. Nothing wrong with open diffs but when you put a near stock Jeeps in a group of semi built Jeeps it makes a difference, I used to be open diffs but I stuck with the group of people that had similar built Jeeps and it was allot of fun, as my Jeep gets more capable then I run...

How about the guys who have open diffs front and back, a 3” lift on down and get in the hard trail group to see if they can make it. End up dragging them all through the trail.

OUCH!!

Junk yard 9" about $100 to $250. Regeard by a shop is about $150 since you can bring in the "chunk" and they can do it on a table.

I see you live in the DFW area. Check out PSC steering, they are in Weatherford. I bought a stock ratio steering box from them for my son's XJ and it ran me $189. This is a box rebuilt by professionals who also built my crawler box. http://www.pscmotorsports.com If you live close to Fort Worth I...

Randy's R&P shows a 4.27 for the D44. If your talking about if it can take the gearing I have 5.13 in my Waggy 44. http://www.ringpinion.com/

Check your front shocks. Make sure there tight and that the bushings are still intact. Either things will make them "clunk". Grab the shock and pull it back and forth.

I have the 6.5" Rusty coil springs and used the rear leaf pack off a GMC Jimmy and 1.5" boomarang schackles and an AA SYE. Set up works really good and costs allot less. Coils - $150 + shipping GMC rear leaf pack (junk yard) - $30 Boomarang Schackels - $90 Total - $270

I agree, turn it into a trail wheeler if you can.

I had a Fram explode on me on the start up after an oil change. Split wide open and blew oil everywhere. Never used Fram oil filters since.

WIX O'Reilly Auto Parts carries them also.

It is easer to just get an 82 Dodge power wagon hubs and rotors. Direct bolt on and you can still use the FSJ's brake calibers and brackets which are Chevy anyways. That is what I have on mine.
