Hey guys,
Background first:
I have an 89 Xj all factory parts. Had the jeep looked over because th 4x4 wansnt working and I know the wheel feel off the jeep at one point. The mechanic told us that the front axle is bent and the transfer case was shot. It was going to be $2000 to fix. Obviously, a lot more then I paid for the jeep. However, I dont want to get rid of it.
My question:
Can I just go to a junk yard and pick up another 89 front axle and tansfer case and swap it? Pretty sure it is a factory DANA 30, so I figured there would be a lot of those floating around?
Lastly:
Anyone have an axle and transfer case in good condition just taking up room?
As always,
Thanks for the help!!!!!
