Dana 30 in 89 cherokee
Can I switch the gear ratio from 3:55 to 4:10 without a different carrier for the front drive?
Could I junkyard a different complete higher ratio axle without compromising my dana 35 rear end?? |
You'll really screw up your entire drivetrain if you have different gear ratios front and back. And I'm pretty sure the ratio break for the Dana 30 front is 4:10 so you would need a new carrier. When I say pretty sure, I could be very wrong haha. So hopefully somebody will jump in here.

You do need a different carrier for the 4.10s.
You cannot put different gears in the front without changing out the rear gears. Find yourself an older XJ that had a 4 cyl. and manual trans and there is a very good chance you will find your 4.10 geared axles. |

I have a ring 39 pinion 11 that is shot! the case is stamped 3:55 610321-10, 53005043 AND what would that tell me??
Can I keep that carrier with it's good gears and upgrade/change to what ratios?? What would be the limit for my carrier? I appreciate any info as I have not done this kind of work since I was a kid. |
