Re: Slip Yoke Eliminator
Gerald, would you please point me to the web site URL of the one other
dreamer that believes the puny chain, sun and planetary are as strong as
Dana 18 that came in the original Civilian Jeep. Two to one are perfect
for stock Dana 44 with 5.38s.

My JB conversion kit did not require the use of a press either. I also found
that with the T case completely out, it was much easier to work on, as I didn't
need to remove the shift fork assemblies since I was working on it vertically.
This is especially helpful when re-installing the oil pump and pickup tube. I
removed the T case using my floor jack, a large piece of lumber and a couple of
ratchet straps.
I did a little writeup on my conversion at
