I'm pretty sure the carrier split is actually 4.10 and down, but regardless, good advice.

 

Nope it's 3.92, the factory 4.10 tricks use a thick gear if memory serves me correct.

 

You are right, my bad.

 

If you have the 3.92 higher carrier you can't use thick gear's there is not enough room for them. 3.92 carrier use's stranded cut thickness gear's. 3.92 and 4.10 truck's did not come with thick gears.

 

The 4.10's did from the factory, it's cheaper for them to make one carrier for all trucks then throw a thick gear on the handful of 4.19's that came factory.

 

All 4 cylinder jeeps came with 4.10's... Just an FYI.. The front on them was usually a Dana 30 on all models except the Rubicon which had a 44.

 

Your are right after looking in the parts books 97 and up used the same carrier and thick gears, were as 94-96 have different carriers.

4762 138 w/3.54 Ratio (3500Lb.) 1994
4778 672 w/3.54 Ratio (3850Lb.) 1994-96
4762 139 w/3.92, 4.09 Ratio (3500Lb.) 1994
4778 602 w/3.92, 4.09 Ratio (3850Lb.) 1994-96

 

various jeeps had the 44s not just rubicons.



check to see what the jeep owner is using 4.88 thick cut or larger carrier also are you getting the carrier

 

On what jeeps is that? The OP said out of a wrangler non rubicon... Yes the 44 was an option in the rear on most jeeps wranglers except the X edition.. To my knowledge all of the fronts were a dana 30.. Not trying to argue would just like to know.. Pretty sure they were all 30's.. And if I am not mistaken the 4 cylinders were all 30/44 set up with 4.10 gears... Now the 6 cylinders were 30/35 setup or the optional 44 rear.. Gear ratios were between a 3.07 and 4.10.. My jeep had the POS 35 in the rear and I hated it untill I swapped it out with a 44 I snagged from a buddy..
