  1. TJ Wrangler Technical Forum
    I am swapping a 4.8l ls out of an 03 silverado (4l60e trans) into my 02 tj along with a dana 300 transfer case and rubicon 44s with air lockers. I have read several posts about needing a SYE and needing to shorten driveshaft but im not sure if that applies to me since my transfer case may need...

    This is a little trivial, but I'm curious if anyone knows of a shorter shift lever on the market for the Dana 300? I'm 6'1" and when I'm sitting in the passenger seat (teaching my teenage boys how to drive a manual) my knee keeps hitting the T case shift lever and knocking it into Neutral. The...

    Does anyone have some pictures of this swap? I just got mine done and trying to decide how to bend the shifters. I bought the wrangler AX15 tunnel cover, but it still needs some manipulation in order to get into 2nd,4th and reverse. I also had to hack off the cup holders on my center console...

    I've had a growl going on for years and I think I've narrowed it down to the Dana 300. In 2wd with the hubs unlocked from time to time (usually if I hit large bumps or cross railroad tracks) the front drive shaft will start to slowly rotate (maybe 1 rev/sec). When the front drive shaft is...

    Getting ready to put a 4.0L into my CJ. I have acquired a Dana 300 with the long output for a guy that sold me a T-176 transmission that I wanted. Can it be rebuilt and convert it to the short output? Should I rebuild it and just use it as is? Or forget it and just rebuild the short output...

    My Dana 300 was leaking from even possible spot, so I decided to rebuild it. I bought a seals kit, intermediate shaft kit, and decided to purchase the bearings separately. I'm starting the rebuild process and pulled out my the input shaft bearing. I purchased replacement bearing 8131682...

    I have front drive train issue. First the basics. I have an 84 cj7. Dana 30 front dif. and a Dana 300 TC. The problem is when I shift into 4wd (either high or low). Under a load, like up a small hill there is a hard banging. It does this with and without the hubs being engaged. I had a...

    1983 Scrambler, with twin stick from JB Fab. The rear axle is not engaging in either Hi or Lo range, even though the stick pops into place and "feels" like it always has when shifted in the past. This did not happen immediately after installing the twin stick but shortly thereafter. I noticed...

    The front output shaft on the dana 300 is leaking a decent amount of fluid. There was a puddle of gear oil in the driveway this morning and I'm looking for advice on how I should go about it. A.) Just got the gasket kit B.) get the rebuild kit? Money is a little tight right now other wise I...

    Its my first time changing fluids I have already drained my dana, it has very little oil in it, about 200 ml or less. I also have already refill it but I'm not sure I did it properly :/ I did not remove the Dana from the Jeep, I pour oil into the Dana until it stared to leak from the refill...

    The Dana 300 on my Jeep is leaking a lot of oil I need to make absolutely sure it does not leak as I taking my Jeep for inspection to obtain my licence plates. However one drop would be enough to fail the inspection :( I bought this kit from ebay http://www.ebay.com/itm/201125921401 However...

    We recently purchased a 1984 CJ7 with the T-5/Dana 300 combo in it. The T-5 is going to need some work on the shifter to make it serviceable long term. I also have a 1976 CJ5 that is mechanically sound but so rusty that it's not economically feasible to restore it. It has a T-18 and a Dana 20...

    I've been reading through threads but nothing seems similar to what my transfer case is doing. When I'm in 4lo ONLY I hear a noise that I can only describe as the same sound a clutch makes when its being slipped but a lot deeper sound. Some people may call this grinding but it doesn't seem that...

    I am looking for a SOURCE of New Dana 300 shifter parts. the items I am looking for are numbers 2, 19 and 20 in the manufacturer parts manual. I have attached pictures of pages in parts manual and a picture of item number 2 which is called only link PN J536 0073. Mine did not have a bushing or...

    Had to tear down my D300 today as a grinding noise that I thought was the front drive shaft hitting the skid plate wasn't that. Disassembled completely to discover RTV all around the shift forks where the ball bearings go. This had the effect of hard shifting and, even when shifted, forcing the...

    I am currently building my cj7 from ground up. my t176 operates smoothly, but it used to pop out of 1st before the rebuild. while rebuilding engine (currently in progress) I decided to go over transmission to fix popping out of first. there are three springs in the cover that push on 3 ball...

    I recently replaced my transmission, which works :) however, I tool my shifter rod off my dana 300, took the bolt and all off. got everything back installed. now i cant fit the bolt back into the dana! it either hits the jeep floor or the transmission. am I an idiot? I supposed I could lower the...

    Hey guys, picking up a new T176 tomorrow to replace mine while I attempt to rebuild it. I cant seem to find any good threads on the steps of removing the transmission. It will be a 1 man job so I will want to do it separately from the transfer case. I am guessing I need to removing the Dana 300...

    Does anyone know if an AX15 from a 2000 Sahara will swap over to a CJ7 with a 258.....I know it will take some "massaging" and part sourcing, and I know that ppl have had good success with the 94 and up yj and xj AX15s, but I've yet to find any info on the TJ AX15s and whether or not they are...
