Re: XJ HP Dana 30 into TJ swap.

I have fitted a XJ hpD30 to my TJ Wrangler. It bolts in. A HP 30 is surpose to be about 20% stronger than a LP 30. Mine has a full on detroit locker and 4.56 ring and pinion. In my oppinion a full on auto locker is the way to go, no switches, air compressors etc nothing to go wrong and it drives ...

Re: LOCKRITE DIFF LOCKER..are they ok in the front

I ran an XJ pretty hard with a Lockright in the front D30 and a Detroit in the rear D35 worked real good. The lockright is a very good option in the front D30 Cheap and easy to install Only issue is a bit of clicking on the blacktop when making tight turns. Also stay away from full time 4wd in the ...

Re: Finally got a ZJ in the driveway

I have also found the upcharges on imports to be very much hit and mis . Some times the stuff just arrives at the backdoor no GST or charges at all. Other times you get the call for the credit card number for all sorts of charges. The best freight method from the US is to pop over and put it in your ...

Coop,

I have not actually lifted a WJ however I understand that there will be front driveshaft issues to be worked thru IE you will need U Joint yokes for both the transfer case and the diff and a new shaft.

Re: looking for info on ZJs

ZJs have a full time transfer case with either 4 High Or 4 low In In 4 High the drive is thru a viscous coupling which will crap out . In 4 Low the Tranfer case is locked (I think). The general concensus is that the ZJ transfer case is not as good or usefull as a XJ 242 case or a TJ 231 case. The ...

My TJ with a D30 And D44 is 3.07 ratio which is hopeless . How much would you want for your two 3.73 ratio diffs ?
Or maybe I could bring a jack , park by yours and do a swap.
