Well i got under my jeep and got the following info. What can you all tell me about what i got in my jeep? . I looked for the items on search on this site but didnt find anything. What I am curious is what I got and what I might need to build a decent XJ for not a lot of $ .
Transfer Case "new process gear" 231J or 281J ... couldnt tell if a 3 or 8 (272 Ratio) Assy No. 5300 8208
Front Diff (307AF)
Rear Diff Dana 43225 (294 9) Rev-B, 08-29-88 (my jeep is a 1990) on left side along the axle numbers on top 35c and on bottom of axle on diff 9345.
I also am curious what you all recomend for lockers (rear and front). I have a friend who has a Toyota Treker who thinks my jeep is junk. I would like to make him eat crow in time (I dont have the $ to spend on my rig like he does), however he is running 33's and in process of running 35's with a lot of time and money in his rig at the moment.
All i have at the moment is a 3 inch lift running 31's and i have been working on the front end and shocks at the moment. My friend thinks I should "weld" the rear axle like he did on his, but I think that lockers are probably a better idea and I have heard that welding the rear axle on a XJ is not a good idea.
Thanks.
