Jeep TJ dana 35 with limited slip and 35s? can it be done?
Hey all I have a 97 sahara with a dana 35c open rear. Im upgrading my
33s to 35s within the next year. Before i add the 35s im gonna regear
to 4.56 but im unsure on what to do with my dana 35. My plans are
either to regear to 4.56 and add super 35 to the rear with a detroit
locker. For about the same price instead i could add 4.56s and
detroit truetracs both front and rear. I would rather do this because
I live in New England where winters suck and my jeep is a daily
driver, so im unsure if a detroit locker is necesary. Howerver, I do
offroad frequently and i have a light foot. Will a dana 35c hold up
with 35" tires and a Detroit True-trac limietd slip? I would rather
get the super 35 with an arb but at about $1200 for the arb super 35
money is very tight.

When your Dana 35c breaks would you please send the pictures of it
to below address, so I may add them to my site:

Re: Jeep TJ dana 35 with limited slip and 35s? can it be done?
Personally, I would recommend that you wait on the 35's until you can afford
to upgrade the axle at the same time. I doubt the dana 35 would hold up to
the 35" tires, and you'll end up spending a lot of money on regearing and
such for an axle you'll have to replace down the road.

Re: Jeep TJ dana 35 with limited slip and 35s? can it be done?
Hi Derek,
A gear-driven limited slip is nice, but it's no locker. I've got one of
the Rubicon lsd/airlocker diffs in my D44 rear and while the lsd keeps
me moving in places where my open diff used to leave me spinning, there
are many times when I need to engage the locker to keep crawling on
steep grades. Save your pennies for selectable lockers.
The best option is to swap out your rear for bigger gears and bearings,
but the Super 35 axles should hold up with your desired tires.
You can get the ARB Super 35 kit for $995:
http://www.samsoffroad.com/samsoffroadsto/index.html
But you'll also need an air source and a solenoid. You can avoid the
solenoid with an inexpensive air switch:
http://www.samsoffroad.com/samsoffro...0Install%20Kit
If you can find a TJ Dana 44 to swap in, you might consider the Detroit
Electrac for $800 and no need for air.
Remember that a good portion of your cost will be R&P setup. This makes
the relative cost difference between lockers and lsds less significant.

A gear-driven limited slip is nice, but it's no locker. I've got one of
the Rubicon lsd/airlocker diffs in my D44 rear and while the lsd keeps
me moving in places where my open diff used to leave me spinning, there
are many times when I need to engage the locker to keep crawling on
steep grades. Save your pennies for selectable lockers.
The best option is to swap out your rear for bigger gears and bearings,
but the Super 35 axles should hold up with your desired tires.
You can get the ARB Super 35 kit for $995:

But you'll also need an air source and a solenoid. You can avoid the
solenoid with an inexpensive air switch:

If you can find a TJ Dana 44 to swap in, you might consider the Detroit
Electrac for $800 and no need for air.
Remember that a good portion of your cost will be R&P setup. This makes
the relative cost difference between lockers and lsds less significant.
