CheapXJ 09-21-2002, 03:55 PM what gears would i find in the front fulltime d44 on a 78 1/2 ton powerwagon w/318, auto and of course, the fulltime transfer case. these are standard cut gears, nothing special right? hy_desert_4wheeler 09-21-2002, 07:35 PM Yep standard cut gears most likely 3.55 ratio.. 6 cylinders usually got 3.92 gears smallblocks usually got 3.55 gears big blocks usually got 3.21 gears CheapXJ 09-21-2002, 10:57 PM damnit. . . guess i gotta look for lower gears elsewhere. . already got 3.55's, but i could get these for free, which is why i asked. thanks :beer: hy_desert_4wheeler 09-22-2002, 06:10 AM If you don't want to buy new look for a 3/4 ton they usually have 4.10's and a few had 4.56's CheapXJ 09-22-2002, 11:51 AM what would be the outward giveaways of 4.56's? I've had VERY good luck reusing OEM gears. i don't think the aftermarket gears come close (and ya can't beat the price, can get the whole axle minus the shafts and brake hardware for $40-$50) 4.56 is what i'm looking for. but even if i don't find them, i still need a carrier, and used ones are cheaper. Still have to get new gears for the D30 though. hy_desert_4wheeler 09-22-2002, 02:50 PM The only way to tell for sure woth out pulling the cover is if the tag is still there(unless someone switched gears or some unscrupelous(sp) seller switched tags.. | |
