Then why would they specify a gear ratio if there is no gears ???
also, to your other point. The full float rubicon axle is about $100 bucks more. $2600 for a complete replacement axle. These are service replacements which are a bolt on and go sort of deal...
Do you ever notice that it aggressively uses second gear (skipping 3rd) when downshifting ???
do you use the gear indicator on your center gauge cluster? At low speeds, like pulling into your neighborhood doing 15-20mph do you ever see the gear indicator quickly flip between 2 and 3 ???
I...
Thatās just it, the ābare housingā has different part numbers for each gear ratio (4.10, 4.56 and 4.88). So I am āASSUMINGā itās a bare axle WITH gears, which would also mean locker ā¦
Iām thinking we just need to add axles, we can add RCV $$$ and a pair of hubs and the rest comes from our axle...
If what I installed was the proper behavior of the tune, I WOULD NOT install the tune ⦠the behavior towing was not confidence inspiring for the longevity of my transmission ā¦
I went back to stock ⦠I may or may not try again, just in case I did something wrong or there was a fluke in my...
NO! And there lies the problem ⦠but seeing as I can get a factory full float JL axle for $1600 bucks from the dealer, it may not be a bad idea to have some heavy duty mounts welded on and a truss. After selling the stock axle, it may be a cheap and decent upgrade
I wasnāt impressed with the tune⦠when towing I saw odd behavior⦠it short shift from 2nd to 3rd kinda lugging in 3rd. Then down shift from 4th to 2nd really ramping up the RPM (2800-3000rpm). At low speeds Iād see the cluster flicker between 1 and 2 and also flicker between 2 and 3 (I have the...
This is why Iāll never sell my LJ, unless I can trade for a CJ8 šā¦ too small and too fun not to keep as a real Jeep. Wheeling a big, pretty, expensive gladiator adds a lot of stress and its size removes a little capabilityā¦
Thatās good to hear ⦠Iām a bit different in that I have the eco diesel and tow 5-6000lbs, thatās a lot of constant torque, however no shock loading ⦠Iām thinking these are actually really good axles. Well engineered.
Perhaps chromoly shafts, REM polished gears and a little cryo treatment is...
Ok captain overkill, haha⦠we were talking about the Dana 44 full floater ⦠or should I say āfull floaterā ⦠ultimately for strength, a real full floater is a no brainer, not to mention HD 1 ton brakes
but since we have your attention, howās the ride with the full float setup? Full floats are...
Yep ⦠you can see on the Mopar catalog, there is a bare housing option, 1600 bucks but there are different part numbers for different gear ratios⦠this may be a good depending what it actually comes with ā¦
I been wondering the same ⦠itās not TOO difficult to buy a new axle, $2500 bucks on Mopar parts sites and get new brackets welded on ā¦
I was hoping the āfull floatā would make it to us gladiator folks for a nice easy swap ⦠also, factory 4.56 XR option so I wouldnāt need to re-regear ā¦
Stage 1 and the trans tune make taking off very snappy... way too sensitive. I was also having some weird behavior towing my travel trailer, made me nervous. I have reprogrammed my TCM with the stock tune for now ... I am awaiting a response to my email from EOC, which is taking forever.
Oddly, without my trailer, it seems 2nd hangs on a little long ⦠when towing my trailer 2nd is quick to upshift to 3rd, and also quick to downshift into second to engine brake at unusually high rpm
how heavy is your trailer ā¦
Anyone here use the EOC transmission tune and actually tow a load?
I am seeing some odd behavior with the EOC transmission tune when towing. It seems to shift quickly out of 2nd gear, sort of lugging 3rd gear⦠and when decelerating it downshifts into 2nd from 4th (skipping 3rd) and really...
