I always thought a T700 was basically a T350 with overdrive and 4L80E a T400 with overdrive.
Yes the original D30 unis fail the same as the later ones.
CJ8, 360 and 35s.
On the left is the front axle, the bearing caps just sheared off.
On the right is a D44 rear axle from the same CJ, busted it on a different occasion though.
I do believe the main reason for breaking unis is lack of grease, but don't think a bit of grease would have helped this one.
After this breakage I replaced both inner and outer axles with Warns high strength units and no more problems. This is a good option as they are a bolt in mod and give the bigger unis. Not sure if they are still available.
Diff now sitting in shed, replaced by D44.
