problem with 4.56 gears

_devildoll1 · Mar 28, 2004

I just got a set of 4.56 gears and powertrax no slip for my xj. i am woundering if anyone has installed these , i was told i dont need a new carrier, i installed them and the ring gear is to big therfore i cant get the crosspin in, do i need a new carrier? or do i have to run 4.11. Id appreciate any info on this thanks.

What gears did you have before? I think the split for a new cace is 3.73 and up and 3.55 and down. Hope this helps.

Case Changes: 3:73 & Down, 3:91 & Up!

This is not right, D30 is 3.73 & up - 3.55 & down, D35 is 3.55 & up - 3.23 & down. :wave:

If you have an 8.25 in the rear you do not need to change the case. For the D30, like XJoachim said. When installing a lunchbox locker like yours, you may need to either take off the ring gear or just grind down the ring gear where the pin is interferring.

I have a picture of one if you need it.

I would unbolt the ring gear and put the cross pin in and then bolt the ring gear up but that is just me I try to do stuff the easy way.

n/m then, I thought you were asking about the D44 carrier break.

how the hell you suppose dto do that with a c-clip axle????

answer:

you can't.

all you have to do in grind down a small amount of thr topland of the ring gear tooth.....you'll be able to slide the crosspin right in.
