I believe that a fella on the board stated that the rear was junk in it on the rusty frame post. Spider gears are probably the culprit along with the fact that it is a 35 rear. The dana 35 rear axle is an axle not worth putting more than 50 bucks in.

Grab a 4.10 geared 8.8 from UP&P in Cincinnati.
weld leaf perches on it, get thee flange adapter & you're good to go. Cheap as another D35 & much stronger. Same bolt pattern & very close to same width. |

8.8 is under newer ford explorers.
Determining gear ratio is a little trickier if there's no tag on the axle. the flange adapts the u-joint you have on the end of your rear driveshaft to the pinion mount on the rear axle. this may help: http://www.jedi.com/obiwan/jeep/ford88.html |
