Part 4 of my series. Trying to get the XJ to be a reasonably reliable rig for 2-3 day trail runs. Driving style is light on the skinny, crawl over or go around. Sitting in 33's, extend lockers, 4:56 gears, about 5" lift.
This post focuses on the rear drive shaft. I have an SYE and D44 with pinion angle set and a Tom Woods (I think) rear shaft. The thing is beefy.
Questions:
- what is a reasonable trail spare to carry?
- what misc. parts pieces should be carried for rear drive shaft trail failure/damage repairs?
- would it be reasonable, with per run inspection/maintenance to not expect rear shaft failure (assuming trail damage is avoided)?
