Wildman Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 The question is......... Which D35 do you have :hmm: Do you have a "new" D35 from a XJ, with the 9" brake drums, that your using on a MJ that "had" 10" brake drums?????? And that's why the wheel cylinders are different sizes????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wildman Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 OK.......from what year??? I know the front brakes were changed in '91, and from my searching, the rear wheel cylinders were also changed - '89 = Raybestos WC17507 (LF) WC17508 (RT) '91 = Raybestos WC37844 (LT & RT) Note- bleeder is centered on wheel cyl. What effect does the year change have to do with your D35's??? Or.....are you going to say there from the same year MJ :dunno: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86MJX Posted August 25, 2009 Author Share Posted August 25, 2009 I'm not sure of the year i sent reser a pm, but i think it was eather a 89, 90, 91, i won't know till he gets back to me, but will i be able to take the lil ones out to put in the bigger ones with the rest of the breaks? :typing: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wildman Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 OK......if your "new" D35 will accept the wheel cyl's then your OK. It's the "new" D35 is a '91 or '92, and the wheel cyl's don't fit the backing plate, then you'll need to get the newer style to make it all work.

Eagle Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 I don't understand any of what you wrote. The basic question is, are the brakes on both axles 10 inches in diameter, or is the replacement axle a newer, Chrysler-vintage axle with the smaller 9-inch brakes?

86MJX Posted August 25, 2009 Author Share Posted August 25, 2009 ok so as it turns out the new rear end has the 9in breaks and the old one has 10in,SO can i just pull the axle shafts out of the old one and put them in the new one? is there c clips or any thing i shuld know about doing that or any problems that i might have? thanks for any help.

John The old axle will be the non c-clip style. The "new" axle will be a c-clip axle. So the shafts will not interchange. And I don't think the brakes will interchange. I am not certain, but I think the bolt pattern attaching the backing plates to the axles is different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildman Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 :agree: You can not change the axle shafts that are made for a non-C clip to a C-clip, or '91+. 2 totally different axle shaft mounting and bearing set-ups. Your best bet is to get the Correct brake parts for the '91+ axle, with the 9" drums and make that one complete. And, I think Eagle is correct, that the backing plates are totally different, and not interchangeable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOrnbrod Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 I'm pretty sure the the D35 C-clip axles started in 1990. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
