Dana 30

I may get a Dana 30 out of a 95YJ for my 91 YJ.
Can I use the calipers from my 91 on the 95 axle?


Also does the 95 have the larger TJ style axle ujoints?

'95 is a YJ, so hypothetically it uses the same ujoints and calipers. I
don't think they changed those between 91-95.
I'm just guessing, though.
Go to a parts website, look up the respective parts for the 91 and the
95 and see if the part #s match.

Not sure about the u-joints but the calipers will work. I just did this
same swap on my sons 91 YJ... put in a 95 axle set for the 4.11 gears.

DOH! why did'nt I think of that?

95 they went to 297 Ujoints, 260 prior to that.

Thanks

Part numbers won't match, the '95 has a slightly different vacmumn motor
setup. Requires moving the wire from the switch on the firewall down to
the switch on the axle. No big deal, just one of those irritating things.

I did not have to do that... same hook-up on the vacuum disconnect as the 91
axle.

Hook up is the same, but you don't have the '4wd' light on the dash.
