And by the way since u grew up on farms and on construction sites like I have u would also know that alot of tractors AND industrial equipment such as forklifts small dozers, and backhoes mostly have INLINE 4cyl's in them and don't forget how many of your major semi diesels r inline 6cyl engines...

Calm down Sparky, I'm not knocking a V8/V6 they r great engines!!! They have been around for ever for a reason,,, but look at history of inline engines 2cyl/4cyl/6cyl have been around in tractors and everything else out there since pretty much since the beginning and r still running. Like I said...

That's what I think to bout running the 4.0, durability!! I know I'm doin a V8 but it's because I have one already and the drive train, but if u think about it a V8 every piston fights each other in opposeing force to drive the crank, now in a straight 6 they r inline with less resistance...

U don't think the locker and ring&pinion r any good? I could scrap reat of axles and get $100 back

Probly you're best bet ( in my opinion) would be to go buy a used 4 wheel drive truck that has the motor and transmission and transfer case and wireing harness if fuelinjected that way u got everything u need for swap and if anything when u buy it this way u can even drive it to make sure it's...

Oh and by the way I'm lookin to put the axles in a 95 yj with 330hp 350/nv4500/241 with SOA with 37" tires hope that helps

Here's my question, I have a friend who has a scout rear axle and a waggy front 44 with 4:27 gears and lockers in both I can but them for $100 rear has disc brakes conversion, the only problem is his garage caught fired and burned up his jeep and all, he says the front axle is warped due to the...

I Kinda figured that was the case, I was curiuose since the motor/ transmission was a freebee he couldve made it a stroker cause I already have the 258 crank. He's not plannin on it being offroad only it's also his daily driver. Thanks for input

Hi fellow jeople, here's a question I have been wondering about for some time now, why. Does everyone say it is easier to swap in a V8 then it isto swap in a 4.0??? I'm not doing it I'm doin the 350 route. A friend of mine has a 94 yj that we just put a 4" lift on but he has the 2.5-4cyl 5spd I...

Hey guys I just had a interesting question pop in my head as I'm trying to explain this to my girlfriend(cause she asked) , If I only cut one side to fit the waggy axle shaft, ain't I goin to have 2 different bolt patterns on front axle????

So that would put it at about 64" wheel mount-wheel mount? I haven't looked around yet for a ford axle so I will make sure I look for f250

Ok thanks that's what I was wondering about I'll have to get one and try to line it up where the drivers side tire needs to be and go from there thanks again

That's what I was thinkin, is that gonna have a bad effect on my front drive shaft? Sorry for so many questions but I am just trying to make right choice for my jeep, if I can do this now befor engine, and drivetain is done it will b easier, and save me trouble later on out on the trails...

I had a 77cj5 that had a loc-rite in the rear only, I've never run a Detroit but I do know haveing the locker in the rear and not the front was a good thing cause alot've times I didn't need to b in 4 wheel hi or lo so I kinda figured if I'm not runnin 4 wheel all the time I was saveing wear on...

That's what I was thinkin, I'm gonna have to make a trip to the junk yards and do some measureing. Now if I only cut one side down to a waggy long side length, how does that affect where the center section sits?

Another guestion just thought of, since I'm gonna b loomin for a ford front what's the bolt pattern, and what would have a ford9" in it that would b close to 60"s? mustang, or maybe some other type of car?

I've been wondering bout that if I could only cut the one side, now I'm sure if I do cut just one side, then waggy axles aren't gonna work right? I would have to have a custom axle made? Or can it be cut down to fit the waggy long side shaft and then just have 1 of each axle shafts, I really...

That is what we have been discussing I was thinkin bout the waggy 44 but I do lik the high pinion cause of my SOA. I'm kinda curiouse on how much needs to b cut off of ford H.P. 44 on each side to make waggy shafts work and a round about price

Sounds like you're gonna b busy. When ever u go to do that mayb u can post some info on that thanx for all the info

I have a 95 yj with 2.5-4cyl/ax5- 5spd/231 t-case 2 computers & complete wireing harness that has 87,000 original miles, I know not alot of people replace this drive train with same drive train but if u don't want to do a swap this is a direct bolt in. It has new starter new relay new crank...
