D35 TTB with Limited Slip Carrier from D35 Jeep Rear?

[nooch450]

Ah ha, that's a whole 'nother can of worms.

We were referring to trying to climb over an obstacle at low speeds, as in the truck is all twisted up crawling through a valley.

If you've already got your front end built and is holding up, then go for it.

A L/S will last a bit longer in any situation than a locker, because if one wheel is bound up the power still has somewhere to go.

The L/S just gives you that little bit of extra traction in the snow and mud that keeps you moving. Im not building a crawler so I find a locker to be unneeded...

I put up a post in Cherokee forum asking if anybody has a D35 L/S they want to sell me...

If anyone here has something let me know.....

I did just remember something that I saw when I was looking at lockers, I know one (Aussie) says they work in 1993 and older Jeep D35's as well as Ford D35TTB's. There may be a carrier compatability issue there.

There's an internal difference with the the side gears on some open carriers. Since he's replacing the entire unit as a whole, not a concern.

So any d35 jeep l/s carrier will go right into my d35 TTB and I can bolt 4.88 to it?

The carrier you need is for 3.55 and numerically higher rear ratios.

The TTB D35 uses this carrier, even for 3.27/3.08 gears.

It works f***ing awesome!

I read back through the posts and saw the 31 vs 33 comments. Currently I run 37's with a l/s up front. I rockcrawl mostly and gotta add that if you're smart you'll be ok. So far I've blown up a hub and everything else has kept up. Just be smart and careful, understanding the capabilities of your rig.

Yup hopping is what blows shit but with 4 wheel limited slip I just slowly pull over anything... actually I have only got stuck one time so far trying to climb up a 45 degree mud bog with 12"-14" trenches from 44" boggers... I only have 33"s so I was dragging the axles in the mud and high centered. I backed right out tho.

You got it. Trac-Lock carrier from a Jeep D35 rearend will fit the TTB D35.

There's also the Detroit TrueTrac available too.

do you use ford gears on the carrier or jeeps

The D35 TTB uses reverse-cut (a.k.a. reverse-spiral a.k.a. reverse-rotation) gears, so you would need to use the TTB (Ford) gears.
