Ed A. Stevens said:Purchase 1996 or later XJ Dana 30 axle shafts with stub axles and u-joints (an assembly listed as a single part number for each side). Slide the old axle assemblies out and slide the new ones in.
The assembly for each side costs between $130 and $200 for Spicer parts (it pays to shop around), and more for upgraded Warn or Mosier Engineering parts.

THE_OWL said:the cutoff is 1992 ? which means 1992 was the first year?
still kinda confused I guess
hjeepxj said:that was kind of confusing, sorry
1992 was the 1st year for xjs with ABS to get 297 ujoints, 96 and above all came with 297s
Ghost said:I just got a used set from someone here for $100! I am going to build a front eventually with them. I want a non disco houseing! I am still theorizing about a cheap warn conversion too! But I need to find a cheap D35 out of a Ford Ranger first!
