    Jeep kj 2005 front diff leak and noise

    Pictures might help us help you as some of your terminology seems a bit off.

    lockers

    Shankster has some good pointers. Rack bushings and engine mounts were both replaced when I had my diff out. They were super easy to get to.

    lockers

    I agree with the above, I have the Spartan helical up front and rebuilt the stock trackloc when I regeared a bit ago. I've found that rather than using the brakes to engage the limited slips feathering the throttle works well without the drag of braking. I've got a video of my Jeep with one...

    lockers

    If ring gear fits the carrier then I don't see why not.

    lockers

    The gears are certainly not interchangeable, but the diff carrier is. Just ask the Spartan helical diff that was built with the standard dana 30 in mind that's currently working perfectly in my dana 30a

    lockers

    As long as whatever you choose also fits 4.10 you should be good. I'm running a "Spartan helical" some say it won't fit, but I've been running it for a couple years with 4.10s no problem. Eaton has a chart on their website which shows our diff as well as the dana 30 that's in other Jeep taking...

    lockers

    Anything that fits a dana 30 should fit the front as long as we're only talking locker and not gear. Chrysler 8.25 is most likely what's in the rear. No particular links, but there's lots of stuff out there in Google land.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I've heard the stuff in the yellow bottle that'll be right next to the propane is hotter. I can't remember what it's called though.

    right front intermediate shaft

    Try putting the part number into Amazon. I think crown still makes and sells them there.

    Lift problems

    Your spring shouldn't be pinching anything, that in itself tells you they're toast. Unfortunately spacer lift come with more problems.

    best replacement when rebuilding the suspsension

    I suppose that's a matter of perspective. I personally prefer quality. My Jeep rides way better with the IRO, I'd hate to put the original back on.

    Lift problems

    Place a jack stand under the lower control arm on the other side to keep it from tilting while you jack up the lower control arm you're trying to reattach. A pry bar in the coil pushing the upper control arm down can help get the nut on the ball joint too. If you still can't get it. Put a chain...

    best replacement when rebuilding the suspsension

    Or buy the IRO once and never worry about it again. The bushings, if you choose that option, are even at the proper angle for lift.

    best replacement when rebuilding the suspsension

    I don't think you can find an OEM rca (boomerang) and if you do they're about the same price as the Iron Rock and not nearly as good. Any of the OEM type that are available aren't know to last.

    Mr.Sponge Bob...???

    Like Luke said. I bought a foam air filter for a lawnmower and cut it to fit. Cheap and easy.

    Lower Ball Joints

    I think you're meaning knuckle rather than spindle, not that it matters a whole lot. But the ball joint case as you call it and where it fits into the spindle I'm pretty certain are the same for all kj's. But they could certainly wear out and get sloppy over time and use.

    Lower Ball Joints

    Thread 'The great ball joint debate' https://www.jeepkj.com/threads/the-great-ball-joint-debate.77356/ it's just hole for the cotter pin, you'll end up needing to use the nylock nut rather than the castle but if the earlier ball joint is used on the later models. I don't know how well they work...

    Mysterious coolant leak....????

    I had a water pump leak that behaved very similar, the weep hole on the water pump is actually on top of the water pump housing, have you checked there?
