FSJ: Big Jeep

[wee doggie]

You know you've got too much crap when you have to move 3 unused diffs just to get to these!



So now I can at least get to them the bottom one will be coming apart soon to have an air locker fitted.
A lot of people think these diffs only have pinion brakes but they actually have big drum brakes standard. Pinion brakes are an after market product and are generally used to save weight. The pinion is the same at either end. You can see the bottom diff centre has been spun 180 degrees on the housing making it almost a centre drive, the top one is unmodified giving a driver side offset.
Stay tuned.

You wouldn't believe I found the diffs in the trading post, happy to pay the asking $1000 each.

Divorced Np205?

Spinning the rear centre around, will that affect the rotation of the wheels?

Hope not, I think the tailshaft that drives it would have to turn the other way to be a problem.

The plan was to use a divorce 205 but this came up for a hundred bucks. It's out of a D1610 International truck and should be strong?

Might want to check the rotations before you bolt them up and shorten your wheelbase or pull the jeep apart! lol

The 205 should be plenty strong, but then again, the IH box is a decent enough find to warrant that. OR, divorce 205, divorce IH box THEN your driveshafts!!!
