Many will agree that the Dana 30 is one of the weakest links of the modern day Jeep (Cherokee, Grand Cherokee, Wrangler TJ, and Wrangler YJ) . Advances in technology combined with industry competition makes the Dana 30 a very easy differential to beef up. Even with a super 30 kit the Dana 30 recieves criticisms as a result of having a weak housing.
Common Dana 30 Housing Complaints:
Bent housing/tubes
Difficult to replace upper control arm bushings
Rotated/Spun tubes
Difficult to attach custom control arms to
Too expensive to beef up
