That link is to your C drive.....

So I have verified onthe build sheet that it has the Anti-Spin option. This is of course, the locrite/LSD that my investigation has lead me to believe I had. Does that mean it's got LSD front and rear? I haven't investigated up front yet

That is of course an option, but I already have 2 Dana 44s in the yard for another project. Also, I am not sure what to look for to find a 3.55 ratio open diff complete axle

I have an 05 Liberty Renegade, 4x4, 6spd, 3.7, ChryCo 8.25...., 1 previous owner was a non-wheeler, and the LSD has severely chipped spider gears. Spider gears are unavailable to R&R, so no easy fix. Can't even find a takeout carrier on Fleabay to steal them from. Can't swing a full R&P job at...

It is most definitely a ChryCo 8.25. Which would be 29 spline. Think they upgraded in 97, at any rate this is well away from the 27 spline days so it is definitely 29. That isn't the question, though. The question is how to identify if it's open or LSD. I would. Ordinarily just try to spin the...

Glove box stickers, build sheets a D such are long gone.. While doing maintenance on the diff found the magnet holding big chips of spider gears. Ring and pinion are good. 3.55 ratio. The wheels do not appear to rotate in opposite directions appreciably.. . Ie, the little bit they do, is maybe...

Go to Tractor supply. Buy a stirrup for like $12. Bolt it into the floorpan- they can flip it in/out when needed. Lots of laughs to be had. :)

This. I have always wondered about the ability to add a cooler. I think the easiest approach would be to attach a heatsink to the bottom- but that brings issues with impact and the like. Very likely, the best answer is to run a high quality synthetic and not worry about it.

I didn't realize you had folks doing this to a 44. I have to ask, why on earth? Whybput a unit bearing on a 44? If i wanted unit bearings on a 44,I'd just buy a TJ Rubicon with its wannabe 44

Is that a different bolt pattern? I see two patterns on the foreground rotor.

Before I put that kind of money into polishing a turd, I'll just install D44s. It was a long shot.

How much are we talking to pull off the WJ conversion, and does it require different wheels?

A similar trick is done to 700R4 trannies to strengthen them. Use the 6 pinion planetaries from the 4L65E

Yes, they should be neither a loose nor difficult fit. I think you've found your failure mode.

This. At the very least, the oil pump needs to be replaced. It may well have been the failure to begin with (I am betting that is the case).. the OP failed, the shift fork nylons melted, the fork gouged the component it contacts (drawing a blank- shift collar?) and frag went throughout the...

You'd be surprised how many people do it, though, out of not knowing better. I believe he bought this truck already built- so while Clyde is a sharp cookie, not sure about the PO.

I'd be looking into the feasability of a Chevy NP231 variant. They used a wider chain and cogs (but then, that doesn't seem to be what failed) and should bolt right to the 4L60E.

Man, sorry to hear about the carnage- it's a pretty truck. Wish I could see the pics!

They didn't come with an LS motor, ever.... Sooooo... Not sure where you're going, here.. ;)

He's not saying there isn't any friction in the 231. (There is friction EVERYWHERE.) He's saying there is no *friction material* in a 231. As in, the clutches/frictions in an automatic transmission. And, it's been a while since I've been in one, but I'm pretty sure he's right. The point he's...
