I had a sweet thought on a Gus re-power. anyone have CJ narrow track axles, and/or 2.73 gears for them? I'd settle for 3.07s.
also super skinny 33s or 34s?
-
I mean come on.
Why didn't you just ask me earlier :)
3:73 gears or 3:55 drum/drum
-
o boy thats going to be a granny shifting machine!
-
I figured you'd have some, Arie :)
Wasn't sure if Matt might have any other options, but I know YJs are his favorite.
I'd need wheels too.
I'll keep an eye peeled for some with 2.73s for a bit, not gonna touch Gus 'till the Bro and 571 are both shipshape-ish.

to the best of my rather good knowledge of pre 87 jeeps.. (pat on the back there)
Narrow Track: 76-83 CJ5, 76-81 CJ7 & 81 CJ8
'80-'86 were 2.73
-
most our axles are gone. we have only a set or two of yj axles, one set of TJ 4.10 axles, a complete 10.25, an empty 14bolt housing, and an empty JK30 housing
wolfie might have an extra set, i know he was parting / assembling from two CJs to make one with a project that died
-
Might be a set exactly as I’m looking for in buffalo for $250 if an ‘80 is likely to be 2.73.

The buffalo axles are '80, but supposedly 3.54

-

little digging shows new tall gears aren’t available. D30 up to 3.07 and AMC 20 to 3.31. No higher from Randy’s.

trust me the narrow 2.73 are out there and cheap since who wants to run 2. anything
-
Sami's are 52.5" with a 3.73 gear.
I may have some jeep axles. Let me look.
-
possible tire source (yes I know how heavy they are)

having dug into things, I think the offset rear of a quadratrac jeep would be good - I can place the engine to minimize side to side driveline angle.
looks like I may have to mix n match to get
- 2.72
- quadratrack offset
- narrow track
It appears that the QT do come narrow but have mainly (only?) 3.54s
-
ide buy a set of those ;D
-
Probably head up once I find axles.

$225 to ship them?

Not unreasonable with a boarder crossing. Or just spend a day driving up & back with a stop for fun of some sort in Toronto.

Plus if you drive up, you'd probably get the chance to select the tires you want, pull all 70% tread ones instead of 50%

REF:
amc 20 carrier break 2.73/307
dana 30 carrier break 3.54/3.73
I think I've found what I need, mix n match - but I'd rather get shit from you guys if you don't want to sit on it so any specifics would be great.
Guy near Rausch has a disk brake d30 2.73 narrow track asking $400, no calipers. figure I'll offer 2?
same guy is asking 350 for a complete wide track 2.73 20.
Buffalo dude is asking a grand for a quadratrack 20, figure I'll offer him a hundred bucks while trying not to laugh in his face and see where that goes, then swap gears to match?
I'm seeing gears and carriers for 20s for around 125ea regardless of ratio, so probably even money and less work to swap gears and resell 3.54s and a carrier than swap into another axle.
-
YJ axles too wide i assume
not that i want to contribute to this terrible idea lol
-
Doesn't this thing burn oil like crazy?
-
current motor needs rebuild, current trans useless. hence: delete everything and start over.
CJ narrow track with 2.73s are the only good option I've found. target wms-wms ~50"
-
theres a ford 7.5 laying in my driveway if it does you any good
-
what gears on that ford 7.5? ill take it if free
-
door code is hard to make out but i believe its a 6 7/8"s with 3.45 s

not quadratrack rear not 2.73.
have located what I need - just need to go down to Rausch Creek area and get them.
I also picked up some roller wheels & tires today. I'll be doing some router and hand drill precision machine work on them to open the center bore and drill the right pattern, but for rollers & test fit for tire clearance it couldn't be beat for his asking price ($120) - much less when he offered them to me for $40 when I got there. Makes up for the toolbox guy haha
I figure I can make a template out of a front rotor pretty easily and make them fit in less than an hour a piece. bald 265/70r17 on horribly corroded alloys off an f150.

32s (bald and leaning)
