Did you not buy your axles from Chuck, before you bought the red Jeep? I know you were wanting the drive shafts and steering stuff. I might know someone that will set the gears, but only if you pull the axle. I know I won't do a set of D60 gears with the axle under one, to much of a pain to put the heavy a$$ carrier in and out if you have the proper pre-load. Hell I won't set D30 gears under a Jeep, guess I am getting old.Originally Posted by huntingman2706217
Ah... I wanna go somewhere soon... Im going to afganistan now and start training the 26th... Would like to wheel before I go but not lookin good... Lol... To much to do... I got my XJ's front axle gutted for gears I was gonna take my time and do/learn myself but at this point I need to find a friend I can just pay to come out and do it... Know anyone local that wants to make a couple three hundred bucks? I dont have a press but I have the full kit for bearing removal... Would just need a press to put on the final new bearings...

I'm sorry to see that you lost a hand in the ordeal. At least it wasn't your right hand.

I had my own axles when I got his jeep... All I got from it was the cage, sye case, fuel cell setup, driveshafts, and some small things here and there... The rest I sold to a kid in robins that wanted the motor... I got the steering from someone else... Originally Posted by mdo817

I dont have time to pull axles and all that mess... I had a buddy come over yesterday and look... Thing I gutted it with no case spreader... Got to lookin and it had 4.10 gears instead of 3.73 like the tag said... I thinking someone did it and didnt know what theybwere doing... Led to shearing a tooth at the base and then busted the pinion at the neck down... there are shims on it but I dont think its even going to be a good starting point... I just dont have the time to deal with this crap... Or id do it myself... Lol
