Good afternoon I was giving a set of front and back axels from a 2022 Gladiator Dana 44 with E-lockers. I was wondering if anyone had any information regarding this swap. I know i will need to remove the 4 link attachments in the rear and add rear hangers plus shock mounts. In the front it will require cups for shocks track bar bracket, and a few other things. The axels measure 64 1/4" outside to outside of calipers. Thanks
Oh wow!
Do you have a 97-06 Wrangler that needs some axles? Or are you thinking of upgrading a Samurai?
Everything about the 2022 JL M216 axles is WORSE than properly upgraded Early Bronco axles. Here's a couple of things to think about.
1. Tissue paper axle tubes.
2. Passenger side Axle disconnects.
3. Unit Bearings.
4. Locking hubs.
5. 5x5 lug pattern.
The Early Bronco is a tough SUV built on a 1/2 ton truck platform.
The Gladiator is a weak pickup built on a 1/4 ton SUV platform.
Here's a pic of what happens when you actually use a JK. (It starts to look like the New Bronco...) tee hee hee.
