They are... everywhere ELSE on the planet. Fucking EPA won't allow the Hilux here, so we have Jeeps.

At least he was wearing new kicks ;)

Ya, they were probably planning on the swap and you came along. Blackford is correct, check the ratios but if it came with the Jeep, the odds are they will match. This will make the fix even easier.

Build it... break it... fix it.... REPEAT [Coffee]

45 year old Jeep... sounds like it still has a lot of life in her... you don't hear to much of "other" brand name rigs that get that far [Beer]

JEEP: Just Empty Every Pocket! [Muaha]

I'm glad it sounds like your Jeep isn't too badly screwed. [Flower]

Which ever axle you pick still needs to be gone thru before you spend all that time putting it together. If there's rust on the gears it will destroy the bearings and seals.
Might as well do it right and replace the bearings and seals now.
