So I am about to regear to 4:88 and I am wondering what is all needed to do so? I want to pretty much replace everything and anything inside.


This is what I got so far

I am going to run 35s and am still debating on if I need axle shafts as well but not sure if I need them....?

 

well do you have plans for an axle swap? If not, i dont remember who makes them but theres a company that sells entire upgrade/rebuild/regear/lock it kits, comes with every seal and bearing, gears, ARB air locker, chromoly shafts, and a few other doo dads, their like 2k though.

if your going to gear it might as well lock it at the same time, plus rebuild and improve overall.

 

Iirc there was a whole video on youtube of a guy regearing like a c8.25 from beginning to end. If you haven't seen something like that already.

 

I got a lock right for the front axle already I plan on running 35s

 

I did exactly what your lookin to do. Your D30 will require a new carrier for 4.88's.

I did new seals & bearings in both axles, I'd recommend doing a full case locker up front since you need a new carrier anyways. It'll cost you a couple hundred more but way better (IMO).

I also replaced hub bearings, ball joints & upgrade steering especially if you gonna run 35's

Depending on how far you plan on going & what size rims you're running, it may be a good idea to swap your brakes to the WJ knuckles & brakes.

From what I've seen, running 35's with a locker you'd deff. Want to think about new axles in the 30. Check out RWK supply on here, got all my stuff from him. Priced right & at my door within days of ordering.

Ring/pinion, master install kits, carrier for 30 min for what you want to do. Also new speedo gear so you tranny shifts correctly.

Good luck
