Hi there Are you sure that Auburn number is correct??Should it be 5432112?? for 3:73 down
Keep in mind you always need a crush sleeve or a solid pinion spacer. For the Dana / Jaguar, you will need to make your own solid pinion spaacer from a correct diameter pipe and a Dana solid pinion spacer kit(you will use the shim part of the kit) or use a actual 2.65″ crush sleeve from a late model Jeep. The crush sleeve is like for 2005 and newer. **If you do not use a sleeve or spacer, you WLL loose your bearing preload. I do not know of ANY vehicle that does not use one or the other. Just because someones ring and pinion kit did not mention it does not mean you do not need one.
Thanks for the tip Bob, do you happen to know the jeep part number?
ADDITIONAL INFO ABOUT CRUSH SLEEVE/ SOLID SPACER.. I changed out the gears in a friends streetrod that also had an Jaguar IRS unit .We did the crush sleeve/solid spacer differently. We used a section of steel tubing and a solid spacer shim kit from a Ford 8.8 rear end. The total solid spacer that we made was 1.07″, as this rest on a ridge that is machined into the pinion shaft. If you gave a set of Dana 44 gears, you will see a ridge on the pinion shaft an inch or so up from the actual pinion teeth. That is where the crush sleeve will rest. Ours ended up at 1.07″, that gave us the correct bearing preload. Since all machining is very close tolerances but not the same, yours may end up at 1.02″ or 1.14″ ….just the difference in the machining.We made a spacer that was solid out of steel tubing , about .850″ thousands of an inch and then used the shim part of the kit to ship to the correct preload on the bearings. You could actually use (2) Ford 8.8″ solid pinion spacer kits and do the same. Again, this is pretty simple…you just need to have a spacer to keep pressure on the bearings for preload. Good Luck!
Once again, Thanks for the tip Bob!
UPDATE AGAIN:
INPUT SEAL: The input seal , Chicage Rawhide #15788 did not fit my application. I used a CA2597, which is a STOCK Dana 44 seal they use in most applications. Just ask your parts guy for a STOCK Dana 44 input seal.
UPDATE ON CRUSH SLEEVE/SOLID SPACER.: The body of our steel tubing spacer was made out of 1.68″ OD, 1.39 IDsteel tube having a wall thickness of about .137″. In general, 1 5/8″OD x 1 3/8″ID will work. Then shim to preload with Ford 8.8 pinion shims.
Phrog, Thank you for posting the bulk of the part numbers. That made it a VERY EASY swap!!!
Thank you for all your updates Bob!!
