Does anybody know how to re-gear axles and want to help me out with my front and rear? I can even pull my axles and remove the shafts so that they can be done on a bench for ease. I would like to do standard 4.88's in my D30 and Yukon Thick Cut 4.88's on my D44 Trac-Loc 3.73 and numerically down carrier. I'm poor so I can't afford to pay to have the work done at a shop but can provide lunch and semi-skilled labor.

Good idea Meg. I'm not ready to help with this at this time. Maybe when it gets warm out but I'm not ready to make the house smell of gear oil cause my garage is in my basement. It stinks for days. Now I only do axle work outside.

I'd offer my garage, it's heated, but 1/2 is CJ stuff ( with my parents carp taking over MY spot) and the other 1/2 is mostly my dads tools and toys, I can't get my TJ in w/o hitting stuff and I'm not allowed to park on the honda
 I do want my front end looked at, it's been wobbly since my near miss tuesday night. -------------------- Just another stupid Jeeper.

I would be interested in joining in on this. I have no experience and would like to learn. I would also like to re-gear my d30 and d44 this year.
