mjeff87 Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 2WD's rotors house the inner/outer axle bearings, and mount on the 2WD spindle. 4WD ones don't....they just slip on the unit bearing, thru the wheel studs. Ya can't use 2WD rotors on a 4WD :( Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barnygeroell Posted October 2, 2005 Author Share Posted October 2, 2005 thanks for the answer and i do know that 2 wd an 4 wd discs are different i was wondering if there is a difference in 2 wd Axles from 84 to 89 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 Hmmm. I'm hardly an expert on this but I don't ever remember hearing of a difference between 84 and 89. Jim seems to know stuff like this, hopefully he'll see this. How much of a smoking deal are you getting? If it's cheap enough, it might be something I would consider buying and if it doesn't work out, re-sell them. Jeep on! --Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barnygeroell Posted October 2, 2005 Author Share Posted October 2, 2005 usually 1 disc is like 80/120 € over here, if you will find them at all and i did find them for 45 € a piece, fact is the seller is getting rid of all the " old junk " thats why hes making such a good price i think i´ll buy them an if they don´t fit sell them at ebay :-)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjeff87 Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 Whoops, sorry Barny...I misread your question :oops: As far as I know, the 2WD beam axle is the same. I've got one sitting in the garage leftover from my conversion, and there's a '99 XJ down @ the junkyard that's 2WD. If you want, I can eyeball both of them and let you know if they are the same (?)

barnygeroell Posted October 3, 2005 Author Share Posted October 3, 2005 @ mjeff87 no problem 8) if you would really go, I would really apreciate this just check if the part, "holding the disc" is different thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjeff87 Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 Barny, I checked both my '87 and that '99 2WD axle in the junkyard yesterday. The spindles are the same, as far as I can tell. Also, Advance Auto lists the same part # for the 2WD front rotor for all model years. I'm pretty sure there's no difference between years, XJ or MJ.
