Dana 35 non c-clip rebuild

[budgetxjmcknight]

Where to find a full kit to rebuild my turdy-5, just seals and bearings. Maybe a new crush sleave cuz I changed the yoke seal and may have over tightened, no tork wrench.

Randy's ring and pinion and Quadratec would be good sources

complete offroad is a ok place too

Thanks for the info, now to weigh the options. Rebuild it or let it go until I find something better. Exp. Dana 44 or 8.25. I don't have the tools to fit a 9" but would love to. I do like the non c-clip of the 35, and I don't plan on anything larger than a 33" tire so I am looking for direction.

A D35 will handle 33s. So any of the others will too. But the best thing would be a stock 8.25 with 29 spline axles

What about my lsd? Mine works great, has seen a few smokey burn outs of both the rear ( may have contributed to the bearing failure, lol). I would love to find an axle with the same but what tag do I look for or numbers stamped to know what I am getting? That and is it a direct bolt up or "some assembly required"? Again thanks everyone for the input..

Guessing that for the same money to do a rebuild of the 35 I can get a full assembly at the local pull-a-part may be better to get an upgrade. Still the question lies at hand, I have a rear 35 that works well, both tires grip. How can I fair the same with an upgrade??? Locker is out of the budget at this point, but may be in the near future.????????
