I Need Help Please, what axle is this?

[rollbar]

I am getting ready to put the axles together in my daughters 80' CJ5 & I don't know what the axle is, I think it's a D-60????? FOrd????
No pic's but I'll descride it to you.

Numbers first:

3-31=Gearing

43-13........43 is the ring gear count & 13 is the pinion count. What gears ratio is this. 3-31?

3241255

These are the numbers on the tag of a extra axle I have for it but it is identical to her front alxe. 43-13 So this is the front on hers.

I have two carriers, one w/this ring gear, the other doesn't have a ring gear, it must be missing. I just want to match'em.

Drivers side drop connected to a 208 t-case w/a T-999 tranny behind a modified 360 w/a Holly double pumper 4776-5 & a S-P-2P Edlebrock intake. (don't ask me why I bought it for her 111!!! ).

6 Lug bolt pattern on the outers

The cover has 10 bolts

there is a stamp on the top flat part of carrier housing= 222B

It has a vacuum diaphram to actuate the 4x4 I think, it has 3 vacuum ports, two on top & one on the bottom of the vacuum housing.

That's all I can tell ya.

The rear looks like a AMC20 but it looks like it cam out of a waggy. It's beefy :shock: .

I'm trying to borrow a camera to take some pics.

Thanks,
RollBar

My bet would be that it's a Wagoneer vacuum disc Dana 44. Sounds like it has the entire Wagoneer drivetrain in it. The rear would be a flanged axle Model 20. I've never seen a Dana 60 front with anything but 8 lugs.

That's what I'm leaning towards.
I don't want to hook up the vacuum back up on this Jeep, is there a mod to do something like that etc.

It's just the new frame; engine; tranny; t-case & axles installed right now, the body is off & getting ready for paint. Axles are torn down, I have to make sure that everything is there.

RollBar 111!!! :shock:

Spend the $150. Otherwise, you'll have to put a plate over it, and then spend a bunch of money to have the axle machined to accept an inner bearing, and axle shaft.

Sounds like the way to go Erik. Why stop now, right.
