Be sure to get the ones made out of rubber so they don't grind so much. Remember practice safe gearing!!
Are you going 4:88 or 4:56??

I have a set of 48 axles to for sale very shortly.
I take it he has a CJ 2A or a CJ-3B high hood. 53 was a transition year for those models. If so with either, the 48 CJ-2A axles are the same for those units as well. Front is a Dana 25 with drums and the rear is a semi floating Dana 41.
Of course this was the same year that Kaiser-Frazer Corporation purchased Willys-Overland for approximately $60 million.

Yeh, it's only taken me two years to gather enough change to buy them both and get the gears done. Some of that was extra school money the wife didn't need to know about. Finishing that up too this weekend and in a few weeks I'll be all edumicated up with a degree and everything. It'll be nice to have a little free time again.

I'd LOVE to have an ARB up front... but then again, I'd also love to have an Atlas 5.0, too. 
anyone want to buy a nicely built NP231 w/Tera low 4-1?

I looked into the Tera kit too, but just couldn't bring myself to spend the money yet. Hoping someday to save up enough for the Atlas.
