    Hey all, I just noticed this leak where the drive shaft is connecting on the front end of the Jeep. You can see the moisture running down and the moisture above I think is coming from the rotation of the drive shaft throwing some up above it. This is my first Jeep. I've started upgrading...

    Would worn front differentials account for a rough ride and more “death wobble” occurrences or something else? I recently had tie rod assembly, as in the connecting part that connects tie rod to wheels replaced (I can’t think of the actual name at the moment). Could that be the difference I am...

    Hi, Did a search on this and didn't see the topic covered. I'm in the process of doing some significant and overdue major maintenance on the JKUR as i get close to 40k hard miles on the rig. one thing that i haven't had done yet is to have the diff's cracked and the gears inspected. i had the...

    So I'm finally regearing from my 3.73's (which I didn't want but came with the auto trans option) on my 2015 Rubi Dana 44's to something more... robust. I'm on the fence between 4.56's and 4.88's but leaning towards the 4.88's. I'm currently running 35x12.5/R17 BFG All Terrain KO2's on 17"...

    Hello. Can anyone recommend a good differential shop in the Chicagoland Area to re-gear rear Dana 44 and install ARB locker? Thanks.

    I recently went into the dealership for a whining noise. The first fix was a main seal leak in my transmission that was still relatively new. After picking it up and still have the noise I went back in and now they are saying my rear differential may need to be rebuilt or replaced. Does anyone...

    I have a 2011 2 door sport (3.8 L, V6). I noticed my front diff is leaking a tiny bit and both front and rear are rusted pretty bad. It’s my daily driver for now and I’ve had no issues. I want to start repairs and upgrades before I start hitting the trails. Obviously I want to lift it but I...

    I've had this issue for a while and I figure it's about time I start to actually do something about it. I have a squeak coming from the base of my front driveshaft where it meets the front axle. Shooting WD40 around it keeps it quiet but I feel like I should finally fix it. The current...

    I just got my Jeep back from the shop after having my diff regeared (Yukon gears). Now I'm hearing a sort of high pitched metallic rattling sounds (see attached video clip): Is this normal? Will it go away with break-in or should I take it back?

    In summary, my stock trac-loc clutches are shot, so I was going to go with a Tru-trac differential. 95 YJ, 4.10, 33’s, mainly street driven (mainly because IL sucks for any off road places). Some “light” dirt and sand planned. anyway, I received Super 35 Axles, 30 spline, for free. Does...

    Hello everyone. It seems that shortly after my 60,000 mile service appointment where they were taking apart my differential, I noticed a front right axle seal leak. Dealer said it's not their fault and wants $1,220 to fix it. I told them to shove it and I plan on doing it myself. I've seen many...

    Need a little help. I have a 2003 jeep wrangler Sahara with a dana 44 limited-slip dif. The only spider gears I can find are for a trac-lok limited slip. Are they the same? I appreciate any help give.

    used in city, not off road. serious damage to the diff happened quickly. The damage 3,000 miles later to the rear u-joint and pinion yoke is massive. Major metal wear on yoke. The wear so bad it allowed the u-joint to slip out. The yoke is ruined and of course the u-joints are destroyed. I was...

    So, I bought an ARB diff cover the other day, and am planning on installing it today. Before I went to O'Reilly's to buy gear oil, I watched a couple "how to" Youtubes. The two that I watched both recommended 75W 90 Royal Purple, so that's what I just bougt quarts of. However, when I got...

    I only bought one ARB diff cover so far (got a great deal on one and will buy the other in a couple weeks), and I'm wondering which area I should put the diff cover first. In the front or the back? (D44's on both) The front has obvious benefits for front protection from rocks, but the back rear...

    I need help figuring out what went wrong or what I did wrong, because I can't afford to mess this up twice! The backstory: after 178,000 miles, lots time in salt water areas and beach sand, and several road trips from TX to NJ, my rear passenger wheel seal finally blew out. Since repair...

    I recently changed my gear ratio in the D30 and F8.8 to 4.88 in my Jeep TJ In order to track the temperature and make sure the differentials, the rear especially, don't get too hot I wanted a simple temporary temp sensor to keep an eye on it. On amazon I purchased a cheap battery powered LCD...

    I'm thinking about changing the differential gears from 3.73 to 4.10. I have a 2016 JKUR w/ 2.5" ARB lift and 35s with the automatic. Anybody know of any issues with the change?
