Well, I'm stuck here in Afghanistan....again. Recently got word from the wife, saying the Jeep is making a clanking noise when moving. She said the sound seems to be coming from the rear center. I had her take it to a shop I trust, which is few and far between. It seems the rear ring and pinion are pretty chewed up. I must not have adjusted it quite right, as I just upgraded to 4.10s about a year ago. So I have been looking at upgrading the axles and then this happens. Granted a messed up ring and pinion doesn't justify an axle swap, however I am about to re-enlist and get a little chunk of bonus money. So I am about to order the Dana 44 w/ ARB air locker that has been in my wishlist forever. Plus I will be fixing some other things I have been putting off. Such as adding a 1" body lift, to replace the body bushings and bolts I lost after installing my rock sliders and not tightening them back down. Upgrading my power steering pump to take full advantage of my hydraulic winch and replacing my track bars with some Tera Flex upgraded ones.
