Dana 35 -vs- Mopar 8.25" rear diff.
Now THAT was FAST! Thanks Andy. It looks like I have the 8.25" in our Jeep. I'm basing this on your photos and the shape of the cover. The 8.25" seems to have a little flatter profile at the top and bottom as well as the raised channel along the rim (which was a PITA to clean the RTV out...- MNMiata

Libby Transmission
Another automatic here. We went with the Automatic... simply because we could not find a 5-speed V-6 anywhere. Ours is a 2002, so maybe the manuals were just not readily available yet (I have seen them since). But either way, when we decided to buy, there were no manual transmissions in...- MNMiata

Dead Pedal / left foot rest pics?
Let us know! I was interested in this too since the dead pedal area provided is a bit too far away and not in a really comfortable usable position. I was hoping to find a usable item at the salvage yard that would look stock and be more useful. Just FYI, the stock dead pedal area is backed...- MNMiata

The Little Things
Here's a couple more.... I like the way the underside of the dash is enclosed in the footwells. It's much more buttoned up. And the pull down knee panel for access is pretty clever too. Also, even though the oil filter is in a terrible place on the V-6, at least there is a clever little...- MNMiata

Dana 35 -vs- Mopar 8.25" rear diff.
(Aeh) I hope this is not a seriously freshman question, but is there a way to visually differentiate between the corporate 8.25" rear differential and a Dana 35? Bolt number? Fill plug position? Hieroglyphics etched in the metal as a message to future generations? I've changed the diff...- MNMiata

Synthetic Oil
Here's 2¢ more.... I am in Minnesota too. Starting with the third oil-change (to allow proper break-in and ring/bearing seating) I switched over to synthetic oil. Mobil 1 5w/30 in my case. I have run it since then and we have about 38,000 miles on our 2002 Libby now. I change it out at...- MNMiata

Rear Diff - Draining Plug?
Threaded drain plug.... I have wondered the same thing about a threaded drain plug. Looked around and couldn't find anything like it. Maybe there's something out there... I just didn't find it. The best I could come up with for why was that I imagine it is NOT a good idea for a 4X4 that is...- MNMiata
