Hard to say without actually being there hands on. Can you take a few pictures with the gear train apart?

Looks like you're not splining the direct clutch to the forward clutch drum properly. When you push on the top of the that stack , does it feel springy?

Yeah I suspected that for awhile. Just got to the point I was tired of fixing the damn thing EVERY time I went out. Now I'm having fun spanking Jeeps offroad , upgrading and taking side hills like a H1. Next is getting a new body. Something in the 2000's with the opening back doors.

And I'll add my 2 cents ( Canadian ) here. I had no problem with the D35 wheel bearing coming loose or ball joint life. Even made my own custom steering that worked pretty good. Keep in mind I don't drive on the street, trailer it everywhere. But I could not keep an axle shaft in it. All most...

For anyone interested in the Edmonton area, there is a 85 diesel Ranger with complete engine at the 184th street pick a part.

Anyone know what the length is of a RBV 4x4 C5 ? Bellhousing to T-case.

If anyone was interested , he has it built and there are 2 videos. For those who don't know, this is a Jeep built for KOH 2011 with a much modified TTB D50 . http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=829346&page=40 scroll down ,you'll see them.

Definitely won't work.

Same here.

The F250 super duty's had D50 in the front not D60. So I'd pass.

Anyone have any experience with these axle shafts ? http://broncograveyard.com/bronco/i-82089-chrome-moly-outer-axle-dana-35-ifs.html I managed to snap the left outer on mine last weekend.
