u-joints and gears
Hey everyone I have to replace my u-joints in my D30 and wasn't sure whether the spicer 760's will fit or not. I've googled it and searched here, but all i found was a lot of people saying they are stronger. The jeep is a 95.
Also, I just did a 3" lift and put on some 31's. I have a set of axles lying around that are out of a 91 auto. Would it be worth swapping the gears into my 5spd? If I did, should I swap the carrier over as well? I don't know much about gears...

i know the 95 has the bigger u-joint but i forget what size ,ask auto zone.
going from 307 to 355 will give you about one gear lower and that would be sweet for 31's and the same carrier will work. but if your ever going to
go to a bigger tire id do lower gears for them now its a bit of work if you dont know how to set up gears.
if the diffs are complete id just swap them in much easier to me.

the axles or complete, they were from my first jeep which my sister rolled into a ditch. The ends of the axle tubes are messed up, but its all there.
