TheDirtyJeep401 Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 Will the axles shafts from an 04 grand cherokee fit in a XJ non vaccum D30? I know instead of u joints it's cv style. Both are 27 spline I believe?
DirtyComanche Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 Nope. WJ axle is wider, shafts are thus longer.
Jeep Driver Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 It's the ZJ shafts you want. I switched and will never go back to ujount shafts.
A-man930 Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 It's the ZJ shafts you want. I switched and will never go back to ujount shafts. Why exactly do you say this? I've been considering going to CVs but only in the name of the NP247 in my basement...

I've been considering going to CVs but only in the name of the NP247 in my basement... I have ZJ CVs. They run a lot smoother, which is nice since I also have an autolocker in the front. There is some debate as to of how strong they are. Time will tell.
1989 comanche mj Posted March 21, 2017 Posted March 21, 2017 The cvs run smoother. But they shatter in a fantastic way. My 5.9 limited zj had them on the axles and front driveshaft. With just 245 75 16 all terrains and no locker or posi in the front i shattered the driver side. Replaced it with a u joint axle assembly then destroyed the pass side. It had full time 4x4 at the time with a 249 case. Huge pain to deal with out on the trail. I have all u joints now and a 242 case.
