help installing a lockright in a d35...

thisfirstlove · Feb 18, 2005

i just tried to install my lockright in the rear end of my 94 jeep chreokee and i couldnt get the side gears to go on the axles on eather side...i pulled the axle shafts out and tried to pound it on, and it only went a tiny way. is it supposed to be like this or do i have the wrong parts?

Pound them in?
The side gears should slide in. Rotate the whole assembly to line up the spiders with the carrier. If it's that hard something is wrong.

Thats what i feared. The original gears slid right on to the shaft, but not the new ones. i guess ill make a few calls and send this one back and get the right one

Are you sure its a d35? If your cherokee is a '94, it should have a chrysler 8.25 rear end. This could be the whole problem.

It could still have a D35.

You better do some more research,there are no year differences,only C-clip/non C-clip and ABS.They all have the same splines!
