not trying to hijack but I can't see the pictures -

where do I buy preload shims? also I need more smaller options of carrier shims than they gave me where might one find those? -

well theres an oil baffle that goes directly behind the pinion head but then there is an oil slinger that only fits the small end of the pinion. how does the preload shims work it seems like that would be just set by the tightness of the nut. it makes sense that the shims are there to stop over tightening but how would one tell if you need thicker or thinner shims? -

So there are supposed to be these shins on the outer side of the pinion to create the right preload? Front doesn’t have them :/ also does the oil slinger go behind the rear bearing if so I forgot to put it on before I put my bearings and seals in so Isbella there a way to get that in without wrecking the seals? I assume not -
Badass I appreciate the hell out of you guys. Driveshaft will Definetly be shorter but I don’t think anywhere close to wrangler length.
-
Can that be done with shims on my perches rather than making new ones?
-
How come you need to angle your pinion? And since the axles have 1310 yokes I should get an sye with the same yoke?
-
do I need a cv or a non cv yoke? as far as I can tell the only difference is between the bolts in the back or the front of the yoke. also 1350 or 1310?
-
thats the setup.
-
would a chain and sprocket not help with that I was under the impression they where stronger
-
Badass! Likely what I’m gonna do to (or at least vaguely similar)
-
Jeep with the 6 planetary and wide chain so technically it won't be as beefy as a 231 HD but pretty close and better than stock
-
I have it all planed out for the x member (thinking even another one behind the doubler and definitely driveshafts will be made and is actually a huge upside to it because I am slightly running into front shaft angle issues. I see I see. I think I might stick with 2 built 231 if they are good enough for full size dodges they are good enough for me
-
I’m running a lengthened stock rn. Might search for a 205 at the pick n pull. Would it bolt up to the back of my first 232? (Froehlich kit if that makes a difference)
-
Thanks for the input! What do people usually do for the rear shaft?
-
I already have a 231 laying around doin nothing. Also it being an ax15 I’d rather not be stuck on something steep trying to clutch out and all that jazz. The kits already on its way so no one can stop me *maniacal laighter* So it’s definitely worth getting one?
-
Ok so I am planning on running a 231/231 setup behind my ax15 and I am doing six gear planeterys on both and a wide chain and I am wondering if I should go with an SYE I know its popular but my current driveshaft is 4' long and with the doubler it will probably turn out to be ~3.5' long which is way to long to worry about driveshaft length like a cherokee. is it worth upgrading? is it even an upgrade?
-
Thats a little steep for me I will keep searching
-
looks great!

computer doesnt want to load the link :/ how much is it listed for?

I learn from the best!

don't mind the dirty shop

Little update. Still working on 4.88s and true tracs :/ taking way longer than I like because work so I just get to look at all torn apart and try Norbert to be sad. Got a front diff cover to match my rear. Got the xj totally stripped and parts taken to my storage unit. Drew me in my Comanche on my Home Depot apron. And diy case spreader. Oh and ordered my 231 doubler and this cool poster showed up
