Hey man, thanks so much for posting this axle swap series. I’ve been planning out an intense Yj build and I want to run a junk yard Dana 60 and 14 Bolt. These vids have been so helpful and I look forward to putting in the work and hopefully getting a similar outcome. Can’t wait to see the price analysis video so I can plan this part of my build out. Axles are the kind of thing I could start soon and gradually put together. Thanks again!

In addition to their Top Tier CS, the turn around is lickety split. When it comes to driveshafts, that's probably the one and only Jeep component where there's no bias regardless of whether you run Adams or Woods and everyone's in agreement that you can't lose with either or.

@@JKGearandGadgets precisely! Their willingness to engage with the community and answer whatever questions you may have, hell...They made a video for someone that wasn't even running their driveshaft but was asking how to put it in phase...that's going above & beyond! Doesn't matter if you're a big time distributor stocking shafts by the dozens, racing trophy trucks at KOH or the average Joe weekend warrior, everyone gets the same customer service. Sometimes it's the lil things like seeing your name hand written on the tag hanging off the shaft. Choosing Adams is possibly the easiest decision I've had to make as far as aftermarket components goes.

I went with 5.38s. So you input 4.66 gears (jscan let’s you), and then use a formula for the teeth count on old axles vs new tone rings and use that ratio for tire size (40s might be input as 35s etc). Went over it in one of the videos on the playlist. The 60 tooth option in jscan does not work

It’s hard to picture it, but the seal keeps the fluid out from between the housing and the yoke. But the splines on the shaft and yoke get oil in them, and then it runs down to the nut. A little oil can weep out from behind the nut washer. I didn’t do it on my axles during the build because of the positive pinion angles, however with the tcase being pretty flat, it can leak. Not exactly mandatory, but might as well.
