It is surprising how well the pinion held up, yes, I realize the pinion is toast as well, but, the fact that the ring took that much tooth loss, vs, completely knocking every tooth off the pinion first, especially on the taller gear sets, due from the pinion getting smaller in diameter... Glad to see things rolling along well for you and your family...
@Rusty411
5 жыл бұрын
Thanks man I think the pinion did well also Maybe because it has got hot and cooled a lot more than the ring gear it what I was thinking anyways could be wrong I run a lot of preload on it because of the hubs and it not turning on the road may have helped it form flexing also idk but with the bearing so close it does get hotter than the ring removing those big tires and looking at the tiny diff is pretty dang impressive lol

I would LOOVE to go bigger =) Also, I know you got this ez, but if you want, pull the old carrier bearings and hog them out, makes fitment for the new gearset super super easy so you don't have to mess around with the press until you get it to where you're happy!!

Hey Rusty, have you ever tried the towel method for getting the carrier out? Just place a small towel I. Under the ring and get it to feed into the pinion gear and it will push itself out when you turn the ring. It’s so much easier. I’ve used it every time since I learned it and I don’t even use a bar or spreader anymore.

Rusty 411 sometimes it takes a minute to get the towel to feed into the pinion, but once it does, just put a wrench on the ring gear bolts and turn and it will literally spit it out into your hands. Let me know if you ever try it what you think.

You spot on about setting gears lol. Kills me when I see people reshim when all they did was a gear swap.. I’m like what are you doing lol. If you don’t change the carrier or the housing and have ton reshim then send those gears back cause they are way out of spec lol. To add I see people guessing around at the pinion depth.. the damn pinion has the tested depth stamped in it! 261 262 260 or +1 etc.. this means they cut the gear to that tolerance. Factory d30 is factory spec at 260 so if you have a pinion that says 262 or +1 that means add 1tho to existing shim set lol. And if you’re trying to shim that tight forget it lol. Just throw the old shit back in and be done. These are the same people who will spend 8 hours adjusting shims to get everything paper perfect then can’t get their pinion cranked down over 150 lbs or so and can’t figure out why they are replacing pinion bearings and seals every year lol. The entire shimming gears is ass backwards! You’re not setting gears the gears and bearings come out of machine shops running the highest most accurate tooling on the planet. You’re shimming your housing which got made with a tolerance in tooling accuracy do to the cost to retool machines. Even still they are still machined tighter then most people will ever be able to really measure in their garage or driveway lol. Keep your old shim stacks and reuse them! Go to any drivetrain shop on the planet and they have bin after bin of unopened install shim kits for this reason lol.

I'm interested in seeing how strong the 5.13 gears are in the chrysler 8.25/ Dana 30. They just starting making them in the last few years. I've been told the pinion teeth count is the same as 4.88, at 8 teeth, the difference is the ring gear count and angle of the pinion teeth to match. You should test that out in the future. I bet you'll love the extra gearing. I ran 4.88s with 33s haha.

Robert of RWK Haus who did the gears on my jeep says all the gear companies get their gears from the same factory in South Korea. If I had known then what I know now I just would have done my own gears. Reading the forums makes you think doing them is so super complicated. Tedious for sure but take your time and they will get done. I've stopped looking at a lot of stuff on the forums. Jeepforum has a tremendous of bitching and bickering. Nothing on our jeeps is rocket science. At least not the older ones lol. Mine is an 04 tj. I can do anything myself to fix it or I can easily learn.

It could also be your flex plate that has a some cracks in it. Mine sounds the same. Not a piston skirt or a rod knock. I've had the lower end out and refitted a set of standard rod bearings along with a new oil pump in my 4.0 and it still makes a similar noise. Flex plates in auto 4.0s are notorious for small cracks. And yet they don't cause a problem for the starter either. It's a pretty common thing.

The 35 has weak axle shafts and tubes that bend the reasons the 30 works better than the 35 is mostly the axle shafts and the 30 tubes are 1/4 thick also up front axle gets less traction than the rear the rear takes most of the abuse reason there always bigger from the factory I've seen dana 35 axles with 40s but they break axles every time out my buddy has a yj with super 35 upgrade kit on 35 boggers and he never has an issue so a lot of it is the axle shaft them selves there porous shafts I have seen many broken and there not good quality metal at all
