I've got a 92 XJ with D30 hp front end. 31x10.5 MTR's
I installed an RE 3.5" lift kit late this winter and immediately had problems with the front U joints chirping/squeaking/clunking. I replaced both U joints with brand new Spicer 260's and everything was grand for two weeks and the chirping came back a little at first, now it's getting on my nerves.
I know I shouldnt need bigger U joints on this setup, but figure that I've had problems once already, might as well upgrade.
I've got a set of the 297 shafts/joints etc all lined up and just want to make sure that theyre a direct replacement for the shafts I have in there now. I believe the donors came from a 95 YJ with D30 front end. I've searched around on the board and cannot find any info for non-disco axles.
Is this as simple as pulling the wheel/hubs/calipers, switching the shafts, and closing it up?
Thanks
