I need some Cherokee help!

Buddy x bought a 91 for next to nothing, runs great but need some rear axel work.. all bearings are bad..

Should I:
1 rebuild
2 replace with working used
3 look for 44 or something to that effect..

Goal is to spend as little as possible!

ANY IMPUT WOULD BE GREAT!

4. Drink 6-12 beers from any state but utah, place large explosive device inside said jeep with 5 gallons of gas, Light run like hell.....Then buy a toyota :flipoff:

Replace with a XJ 44 or JK Rubi 44's.

buy a cheap used rear end and slap it in. Preferrably an 8.25

My buddy has an 8.25 rear axle for sale with an ARB locker... $2,500obo.. comes with Cherokee runs/drives.

A friend of mine has an XJ 44. I think he's looking to get $600 for it.

And he's insane as well to ask that much.






I'd just look around for a 8.25" axle from something newer and throw that under it. Cheap, decently strong. Who cares if it's C clipped?

I smelted them down and made some of those Dangle balls for your Duramax!!

I assume you made a MUCH smaller set for your dodge? Some that have not dropped yet :flipoff:

Replace it. You should be able to find a cheaper 8.25. If possible get a 97+ one. They are 29 spline where as 96 and lower are 27 spline. The 27 spline is still a good axle though and if it is the one you find I would still get it. If you end up junkyard shopping, you can also look for the rear disks off of a ZJ to slap on the 8.25 pretty easy.

Come on now, give him some credit. He can also polish his chrome door handles.

If you change from a Dana 35, whatever you do, make sure you grab the correct driveshaft to go along with it too.

There are length issues that go with different rearends.
