uncrew the plastic thing at the front or rear of the rails, then slide them off

 

Post of 96xjclassic's new springs (formerly my new springs until this morning):

He's having technical difficulties, but they look great in person.

 

Torx T27, I think. Take out the screw, wiggle the end-piece loose, and slide them right off the back (or front).

 

Thanks.

 

is the spline count on the slip yoke the same on the 231 and 242, 27 spline?
were there any changes through model year?

 

outputs are the same. Inputs vary

Wait, so what is the little button for then? Then again this would explain why I could never get the friggers off.

 

for sliding it to a different position

 

so a hack and tap for a 231 will work as long as I have the seal flange then?

 

yessir.

thanks dukie now go update your build thread

 

If i had done anything for my jeep today I would...

 

ok i have a 2wd 4.0 96 classic. I'm wanting a 5 inch lift but I havent the slightest idea of what I need the lift kit package to include. Not sure of all the components I need for a decent lift with all necessary components. Would appreciate the feedback. Thanks . - Matthew

 

springs, control arms, adjustable track bar, shocks, t-case drop (2wd i know but if you get drive line vibes you'll need to lower the cross-member) probably more just cant think right now
edit: brake lines, longer sway bar links if you plan on keeping it
what do you intend to do with your jeep?

 

I have a 95 cherokee with a NP-231 T-case and a 3 inch RC lift. I replaced the rear output seal 3 times, replaced extension housing, got an new ceramic coated slip yoke and the damn thing is leaking again. The lift never came with axle shims and i wonder if this is the problem?? I was also contemplating a T-case drop and maybe the the axle shims as an SYE alternative.. I seem to be the only guy with the seal leaking issue??? As for vibes they don't bother me. I just want to stop leaving oil all over the adirondacks!!! Anyone else out there in the same boat?? what do I do??
