my whole front axle on my 2000 xj is shot all the seals wheel bearings u joints but any how i took my front ds off and the yoke that gose in to the front diff wiggle around like a wet noodle tons of play would it be cheaper to just go pull one at a jy thanks guys need help soon its my dd

 

its a dana 30 with 355s

 

Correct me if I'm wrong but the D30 in your 2000 is a low pinion. If I were you I'd pick one up from a 99 or older that way you have a high pinion front axle, I believe it's 30% stronger? I just picked one up last week out of a 99.

 

yes it is pulled the diff cover off and that yoke or pinion gear has play i think its a bad bearing

 

any help guys

 

Depending on what deal you would get at a JY. But then again....that axle could use some new ball joints and seals...... Write it out on paper and see bow much you would save.

 

true i just need all new every thing lol

 

Talk to the guys at the local JY and see if you can swap axles. If you can get your mitts on a HP D30 then go for it. Either way it seems to me like you need to dump some cash in the current one so if you can do an even trade, go for it. Just make sure the gear ratio is the same.

 

ya thats a good idea
