[jeepin_in_az]

Here is a package deal for you...$x30.00!!!

What we need to make this happen:
4 confirmed and paid orders.

MFG by Yukon Axle
5 year warranty on the shafts. Void if caused by u-joint failure.

Package contents, unassembled:
2- D30 CrMo 4340 outer stubs fits TJ,YJ,XJ...
1- Passenger side inner shaft CrMo 4340
1- driver side inner shaft CrMo 4340
2- Dana Spicer 5-760X Ujoints
8- Full circle snap rings

[jeepin_in_az]

Other sizes are available, but would also need to be done in groups of 4.

[k7mto]

If 3 more CJ owners want in I'd be interested.

Round them up Matt!!! :D

[k7mto]

That's what this thread is for, yeah? :D

[Tom Jacobson]

How about the YJ crowd? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

Mike - does this package apply to YJ's with the vac disco? If so, it sounds like you keep the stubby axle between pumpkin and disco on pass side.

I just dropped some coin on the jeep earlier this week, but that's an awesome deal for new axles. Cheaper than new, stock-grade YJ replacements!

I've been telling myself that my 18yr old front axles/u-joints have work-hardened themselves, and kept from breaking during my abuse (so far...knock on wood!), but it's probably time to retire them to "spare duty".

Tom

[Dave@desertfab.com]

These shafts aren't for Vac disco axles.. Unless you want to eliminate the Disco w/ a kit..

Also CJ orders need to be specific, Axle, year and wide track or narrow track.

All Non Disco D30 XJ, ZJ, YJ, TJ will accept this setup.
If you have ABS the tone rings can be pressed onto the new shafts.
The tone rings do not come with this setup.

3 orders are paid so far.. Get in now before this offer closes...

Take care
DaveO

[Tom Jacobson]

Thanks, Dave...I figured that would be Option B.

Mark me tentative - leaning towards "yes". Need to confirm with the Finance Department in the AM (when she wakes up).

So what's the deal? Is it ONLY/SPECIFICALLY groups of 4? Or groups of AT LEAST 4?

Tom

[jeepin_in_az]

Tom, we need ATLEAST 4 for it. So the more the merrier!

[mbuckner]

Hello Mike,

Does this make the D30 as strong as a D44? Can I still use all the other components that I currently have in a 2001 TJ, ie, gears, Trutrac, disc brakes, etc ?

Best regards,

Mike

[jeepin_in_az]

It will be very close in strength to a Dana 44, but not exact.

These are replacement shafts, not "Super 30" shafts, so yes, all of your existing gears, carriers will still fit.

[Tom Jacobson]

Mike/Dave -

I'll do it. How can I get payment to you? Paypal?

What's the timing on all this?

Thanks,
Tom

[jeepin_in_az]

Tom,

Can you drop a check made out to Dave O'Boyle in the mail to our PO Box?

We are looking into a axle disconnect block also...stay tuned you square's! :D

I would rather avoid Paypal because of the 3.3% fee....

Thanks!

[Tom Jacobson]

Yeah...I can do that. Will get it in the mail tomorrow.

Was tempted to wait until you can look into the true YJ version (vac disco), but I guess this will give me further incentive to eliminate that contraption from the vehicle. Although, withthe arrival of the new axles, I'll have two sets of spare YJ axle assemblies. Guess the shift collar and fork will go in the tool bag!

Tom

[jeepin_in_az]

Matt,

We do not need 3 more CJ's to order. Yours can be included, but the price will be a little more.

Ok, CJ price is $x30 out the door.

Tom,

We have a kit for you to get rid of the vaco disco....$30.00

[k7mto]

Matt,

Ok, CJ price is $370 out the door.

Say what!?! My narrowtrack axles are shorter and use less steel! What makes them more?

When are you placing your order?

[jeepin_in_az]

Ya, but they consider it an antique...:D

Not sure when the order will be placed, possibly next week.

[k7mto]

That's funny, but I was really curious what makes them more expensive. It's still a good deal - just curious of the reasoning behind the cost.

I'll let you know if I can swing it or not. If you don't hear from me, order without me and I'll wait until the next round when I've had more time to prepare/round up los change ;)

That is a fair question...I will ask why they are more expensive.

[jeepin_in_az]

Matt -

Narrowtrack is the same price as TJ's. $x30 for the kit.

Sorry!!! and thanks for catching that! :D

[mbuckner]

Hi Mike,

Check is in the mail..........

Hi Mike,

Check is in the mail..........

Mike


Thanks Mike!

When do you plan on doing your gears? I want to make sure you have the shafts by then.

[mbuckner]

Good morning Mike,

Current plan is to buy the ECTED in early June, which is the last major component that I need for the 8.8 conversion; so I will need the Chrom-molly shafts as soon as you can get them.

Best regards,

Mike

[Tom Jacobson]

Mike,

What's in that kit? Was thinking I only needed a seal for the diff housing and a flat plate to cover the vac motor/shift fork area. Check will go out on Monday, errr Tuesday (holiday). So let me know, and I can add the $30 to the total amount.

Thx,
Tom

ps. Sounds like a wrenching party will be in order for all us new axle owners!

That is exactly what is in the kit, a seal and a cover plate! I have never priced the kits out so I am not sure what they cost. I pretty much give it at cost since you are buying the shafts, because I thought it was a little high for the seal and plate....

[Tom Jacobson]

Thanks, Mike. I'll cut the check to include the cost of the kit. Will get me everything I need all at once. Sometimes the saved the time is worth a couple extra bucks!

Tom

Good afternoon Mike,

Did you get the check? If so, when will you receive the Chrom-molly shafts?

And after you receive them, do I pick them up or are you delivering or are we meeting somewhere, etc, etc?

Best regards,

Mike

[jeepin_in_az]

Actually........

We got a shipment in today!

I am going to go through it and seperate everything out tonight, so give me a call tomorrow and I will let you know what I got.

Yes, we did get your check...thanks for sending it so quickly.

[jeepin_in_az]

We have everything except the Full circle snap rings. They will be in on Tuesday.

Everyone will have to coordinate with Dave, I leave for vacation on Wednesday morning.

Dave - 480-720-1041

[Tom Jacobson]

Dave,

If you're checking in, just post up when/if the snap rings arrive today. I can either swing by in the evening tonight or tomorrow, or have the wife drop by after work, about 4:15 - 4:30PM (she's only a couple miles from your place).

I remember the general location, but will need the exact address/directions again.

Thanks,
Tom

[jeepin_in_az]

Tom and Mike:

Snap rings arrived an hour ago.....

Give Dave a call directly to arrange your pickups!

[AZJeepdad]

Mike,

Is this deal still a GO? I need a set for my new XJ

Tom

[Dave@desertfab.com]

Sale ended.. we meet our goal of 4 with an actual 6 customers.

if you are still interested our current price for the setup pm or email for quote.


Take care
Dave

[k7mto]

Matt -

Narrowtrack is the same price as TJ's. $330 for the kit.



Mike/Dave - can you guys still do this deal?

[Dragonfly]

Is this something that is recommended for a D30 with lockers? What are the benefits to having this? I'm about to put an Ox on the front and regear...is this something that should be done at the same time and would it be beneficial?
Thanks...I may be interested...how soon can you get it?
OOPs, I did't realize this thread is so old..how much is it now?
Karen

[jeepin_in_az]

We are working a deal now with Alloy USA shafts instead of Yukon. They will be slightly more, but close to this price.

Matt - I will get you pricing.

Karen - Yes, very good with a D30 and lockers. Benefits are stonger axle shafts. This is the perfect time to do it since it will all be taken apart anyway.

Not sure on timing yet, but will bug our supplier for pricing!!

Thanks, Mike. Slightly more than $330 is still a good deal.

[azrocksyj93]

Mike
How are you doing getting a new price on Alloy USA shafts for the dana 30. I'm interested. Before I break the little stock ones. Thanks

E-mail was sent yesterday again for pricing...

[mingoglia]

That's probably a question for a private message. :p I'm sure it's a secret handshake club. :D

Mike

just curious who is your supplier?

[jeepin_in_az]

just curious who is your supplier?


It would have been nicer to come to me instead of going to the wholesalers. I am sure you know who it is by now.

[FlexyXJ]

Hopefully, Its Alloy USA. You sure can get a good price when you do a 8,000 dollar dealer buy in......I am sure thats what Mike has done.....

Mike, This Industry is NOT a big secret. Its all about the $$ you spend with your supplier, as to how good of a discount you get. Or, how big of a buy-in you do. The more you spend on buy in, usually you will get a better price on the parts.
