Would this be a dana 44?

[jpdocdave]

that's a big 10-4 good buddy.

[kawaboy13]

Sweet! Thanks man. I've been wondering

[JeepcoMJ]

and factory skid plate package. oh, your proportioning valve is on wrong...flip that rod so it's pointing vertical

[kawaboy13]

I'm not sure what that is. . . And can anyone tell me what transmission and gears i have with a 1987 4.0 standard with a dana 30 and dana 44?

standard meaning 5 speed?

 

you've got 3.07 gears, or you did, unless someone swapped axles.

 

 

the proportioning valve is the part that the metal rod connected to the driver's side of the diff cover goes to. disconnect it and push it vertical with the arm it connects to on the body being parallel to the ground.

[jpdocdave]

parallel or perpendicular?

[kawaboy13]

What could that be hurting? Should something feel different?

[ComancheKid45]

Your braking power will likely improve.

[ryno56]

it controls the output of your rear brakes. The arm on the valve moves up and down with body movement. More weight in the bed means lower body means more braking. That's why that rod needs to be vertical, you just have to pop the rod off, move the arm on the valve up and then pop the rod back on.

[mvusse]

Your transmission would be a AX15.

[kawaboy13]

So unscrew this rod and make it vertical? And that bar parallel? Just show me how it needs to sit please.

 

[ComancheKid45]

itll just pop off.

 

pop it off and move the bar so its pointing in the 3 o clock and reinstall. :cheers:

[kawaboy13]

Alright I reset it. I thinks its st about the 2 o clock position. Should I notice a difference or is it not much?

[JeepcoMJ]

the arm goes parallel to the ground, the bar goes vertical. it will make a difference. pop the rod off on the diff end of it, push the bar towards the passenger side and up, and pop it back on.
