Swapping YJ rears?
 

We swapped my daughter's 95 YJ Dana 35 for a ford 9" and a guy came by and
looked at her 35, said his is shot in his 88 YJ, and he can't afford the
cost to swap others in, and wants to know if this one will fit, I said I
thought it would. So am I right that he would have 4:10s stock in his, same
as my daughter's, and if so is there any other reason why this wouldn't just
be an easy swap over.

Hi Greg,
I don't see a problem. There is a difference inside, as yours is an
AMC without "C" clip axles.

Don't assume that his has 4.10's as well. Better make sure before you have
mismatched gears.

Should bolt right in. If he has the 4 cylinder, it's a good bet that it has
4.10 gear also. If he has a 6 cylinder then he will have 3.07 or 3.73 gears
which, of course, will be a problem. (My statements assume your discarded
axle has the 4.10 gears.)
