Default Dana 30 gear for WJ

I am pretty sure that this topic has been discussed here already. I tired to search for it but I am just landing at ebay with the search function .

So I have a stock Dana 30 front diff and I want to get a new gear ring and pinion for it. I am running 4.56 gear ratio.

I am searching around but cannot find anything off or on shore for the WJ. I recall that someone said that gears for the JK would fit as well. I will obviously need the short pinon so I just wonder if someone can confirm this. I think SBR in Perth has a version for the JK available (takes a bit to stock it up though).

Thanks
Joerg

Later TJ and XJ gears should fit, as they all are Dana 30 low-pinion.
JK D30 gears won't fit, they are the wrong cut too, since the JK D30 is high-pinion.

Thanks a lot Adrian, will look out for the TJ model then. I guess this is my best chance here.

Glad I could help

I think high pinion gears are "Reverse rotation".

Why not try to import from Rockauto? Last I checked they have all sorts of rings and pinions.
