I went and didn't find any other HP D30 axles. I can try back again as its been almost a month. But the only difference is the hole in the housing after I've swapped everything out. I could spend another $1000 or more and get a Currie 44 setup but it's just not in the cards at the moment. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk

So I'll try to make this short. Bought my 91 4x4 Comanche, went to the scrap yard to get a non disconnect front D30. Turns out the 98 Front D30 I got was bent and I somehow didn't catch it in my measurements. From what I can tell my original Vacuum Disconnect axle is straight. I have axle shafts, Ring and Pinion, WJ knuckles, Ball joints, carrier, newer bigger 760 U Joints, everything already bought for the 98 Non Disconnect D30. Will everything work on the 91 Disconnect axle if I buy the plate to cover the hole in the housing? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk

Just pulling up to grab a D30, WJ knuckles, Rear disc WJ brakes. What should I be looking for? I know the D30 should be 95-99 but I'm unsure about the rest. Anything else I should grab while I'm here? Time is of the essence! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk

Hey guys sorry for not responding. Been getting lots of rain and have been stuck at work not really getting anywhere. I have just bought a few things to do a tune up. Oil, air filter, etc. I was going to go balls out and tear this thing down but I think I'm going to start mellow and take my time. I'm still trying to identify the life so I know what to buy. It looks like a 3 inch spring life from Rubicon Express (because of the gray colors). Stock steering. I'll post photos as I begin to dig in. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk

I have an Ecodiesel Ram 1500 and am concerned about the future of my truck. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk

I am just becoming familiar with everything, I bought the truck 3 months ago and it's been sitting through the holidays. I run a Christmas tree farm and have been busy, but now I've got some time to tinker coming up. I will definitely start looking for the replacement D30 HP. Is there a way to do a disc conversion on my rear D44? The rig is a 91 Short bed 4.0 with 140,000 miles AX15 that feels pretty stiff, not in a good way. 3.07 gears from what I can tell. 33" Kenda tires (who knew?) Looks like a 3" Rubicon Express lift. All new to me, want to keep it streetable but it's not my daily. I just got myself a new 1500 Ecodiesel. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk

I just saw something about swapping the fork to the reversed position, would I have to buy a one piece axle to make it work? I may just buy a lighter, 10.5" or 11" wide metric tire that is around 34" tall and stick with the d30 Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk

About to begin tearing into my recently bought 91 MJ. I don't want to move to quickly buying parts just to find out I could have gone a better route. I really want to start with a few basics to get it performing properly. The lift that was put on used all fixed links, the springs have a huge curve in them, pinion angle is hilarious etc. The brakes hardly work. The bench seat needs to go. I'd like to add a tilt steering column. The crossover steering is already tweaked, I'd like to upgrade to 1 ton if there's a swap. Haven't decided between 33s or 35s. If I stick with the D30 up front then I'll go 33s. Previous owner took an angle grinder to the front fenders, I've been looking around for some fiberglass but can't find anything. I just found out that the rear axle is a D44, so that is good. Not too sure how I feel about the D30 up front with the $#!&ty vacuum lock 4wd engagement. I was hoping you guys would have some suggestions for any and all things above. Life is busy lately and I can't scan the Web like I used to be able to. I've owned a 97 TJ and an 07 JKUR, I'm familiar around tools, lingo, etc. Just looking for the tricks to this MJ/XJ setup, the shot cuts if I can find them. Thanks in advance Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk

3.0l ecodiesel coming as well Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk

This is how I bought her, haven't changed a thing. Still doing my due diligence before I pull the trigger on anything serious. Just discovered I have a d44 rear! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk

Just went through the whole thread. Awesome looking Jeep. Just about to start my build and am scouring for ideas. Flat bed is on my dream list, winch bumper, upgrade steering, adjustable steering column, bucket seats. 3rd jeep, very excited looking at yours. D30 up front on 35s right now?

That is good to know! I would like to get rid of the bs pressure system in the front axle asap

Hey guys, I have owned a 97 TJ 2.5 when I was 15. At 20 I bought a JK from my grandfather, recently sold to buy myself a new Ram 1500 Ecodiesel. I also picked myself up a Comanche! I've always been in love with the truck and they have always been so rare. When I got the opportunity I pounced. Anyways it's a 91 4.0 4x4 manual with 140,000. The guy I bought it from put a little lift on it and chopped the front fenders, has some Kenda MTs and that's about it. I'm looking at correcting the front end with some adjustable links, but almost considering swapping axles. I believe I have a 30/35 c clip combo, just like my TJ. Not sure whether I'm going 33s or 35s yet, but I'd like the assurance of not having to think about it in the future. Has anyone taken JK rubicon axles and slapped the under and used the 4 link mounts to fab up the rear? I would hate to build up the suspension just to end up hating the front axle and starting all over again. Also, the pressurized 4x4 engagement is totally new to me. The previous owner bypassed it and put a cable push/pull system in that doesn't even work, total junk. Any suggestions? Any other newbie info is appreciated. Looking forward to putting some time and effort into this thing and smashing the hell out of some trail again! It's been months!
