Looking for John Donnelly axle rebuild link #35

Anybody point me to johns axle rebuild write up , post said #35 in BB. I'm not finding it.

 

what are you looking for exactly?

 

Complete Rebuild build steps for Dana 30 and rear 44 axles from 800. I want to try and rebuild to put in scout 80. So Old post mention John documented axle rebuild steps and that it was post #35 in BB. Found old one but it was missing pic and different number like 8 or something.

 

I've rebuilt my front dana 30 and rear dana 44 on my 800 and documented on my build if you want to take a look. It's pretty easy except for pinion gear setup.

 

it's all in the service manual !

 

yep, you'll definitely need that and probably the parts manual to get replacement part #s for bearings, seals, etc.

 

The service manuals are worth the investment as mentioned. It provides all the detailed information you will need to address anything on your Scout. Binder Books has the 80/800 service manual on sale right now for $65.
In the mean time, if you search the BP I have rebuild info on the axles as well as T-Bone, as mentioned above in his Jello Shot build. There are many others as well that can probably help you find the info your looking for on your axles. A couple of pics and questions here might also allow us to provide feedback on anything specific as well.
Good luck!
