You should remove the front driveshaft so the front differential is no longer connected to the rest of the drive train.

That pretty much sums it up. I'm planning out my lift and whatnot. I'm hoping to find a front diff from a 4 cyl. and swap that in myself, the probably take the jeep to a shop and get the rear done by someone. Will I be able to do this if I don't plan on using 4wd for that intermediate period? Or is this not possible? -jordan |

Since you are trying to find a JY front diff with the 4.10s (rare), just hold off regearing the rear till you have the front ready to install. Keep your 4WD available to you in case you need it in the mean time. Only way I'd ever have different gears front and rear is if somehow gears in the rear broke and I only had the money to repair/regear it. Front diffs can be disconnected/removed and still have the vehicle driveable. |
