So I'm going to 4.56 in the near future,what I want to know is do I have the correct list of parts

For the rear:
4.56 ring and pinion
Bigger carrier
Install kit(pinion bearings,crush washer,shims ect)

Front:
4.56 pinion
Lockright locker
Bigger carrier
Install kit


I've read that Lockright lockers replace the spider gear,but I'm not sure and want a positive answer

Please let me know if I'm missing anything or might come into any problems putting these into a dana 35/hp30 combo.

Thanks in advance!

 

Need the front ring to go with a pinion.

No need for a new carrier in the rear.

 

hey so I'm gonna be that guy. DONT SPEND YOUR MONEY ON THAT PIECE OF **** REAR AXLE

 

I appreciate your input,I dont wheel too hard but I might aswell do it right the first time

If I can find a Dana44 out of an Xj or a c8.25 that'd be my dream,but maybe I can sell the d35 off my jeep to fund a junkyard 44.

Would I need a bigger carrier for a d44? Or c8.25?

 

8.25 doesnt have a carrier break. so no
I believe D44 has 3.73/3.92 break so yes you will need a carrier

8.25 is so easy to find and bolts right up and will handle plenty. definitely put your money in anything other than a D35

 

Agreed the dana 35 would be a waste of your time and money. Its worth getting a better rear

 

Go to the pick n pulls and grab yourself a 8.25. There are a bunch in the general area that you're in. Also, yes, a lunchbox replaces the spider gears.

 

yo atmos,i am doing the 8.8 swap right now, thanks for the info sheet.its all cleaned up ground down new parts welded on,from a 75k vehicle with open 410,what if any lunch box locker is good?

 

stock carriers are a weak point in the 88. I'm using a full case detroit and would'nt use anything less. I'd weld it before buying a lunchbox. I prefer aussie or spartan. it's a tossup really get whatevers on sale. hit up robert at rwkhaussupply for a spartan. be sure to weld your tubes to the housing. 3/4 of the way around should do it

 

29spl 8.25.

 

RWKhaus in the vendor section has badass deals on sets with gears, lockers, chromos, etc.

 

Oh yeah he had some crazy special going that included everything you need to regear. I wonder if that still going on
