    flange for d300 output 119.00
    d-shaft for rear ( 1350 ) 419.00

    Thats a really slick setup, if you wanna pay the money. Im just going to hook up a line lock inplace of the ebrake.

    well i thought about doing that, but i would still have a 1310 ujoint at the tcase. ii do not want to buy an expensive rear shaft now, just to do an upgrade down the road.

    i thought it was a little high too, but thats a 1350 cv shaft with a flange at the tcase. i dont know if length has anything to do with the price or not. i come up with 46" for the rear shaft.

    I'd sleep better at night if it had a 1350 instead of the stock 1310's... your probably getting what you pay for.

    Even Tom Woods will say that the need for a 1350 over a 1310 on most of our drivelines just isn't there.

    It'd be nice though, I like u needed beef.

    I had a driveline e-brake on my old CJ. It was just a drum brake on the output of the t-case. You could probably adapt a disk or drum setup to work. ZJ rear drum e-brake assembly might work if you've still got your old axle. Cut it off, figure out a bracket to mount the pads, and drill the drum to match the bolt pattern of the flange on the 300. Yeah - that's really oversimplifying it, but it could be done.

    Maybe buy the flange and build your own brake system?
    I break stuff.

    Yeah, that sounds like what the FJ40s run.

    even if i built my own brake setup i would still have to buy a shaft. 269 isnt 2 bad its just the 419 that hurts a little bit.

    im bringing this up out of the past!!!

    any progress or more ideas? on how to do this?? possibly a build??
    96 ZJ swapped in 5.2, 242, 14bolt rear, big ugly home brew bumper, 7.5" of lift in the front 9" in the rear, long arms, hummer wheels with 37s... (dont worry front axle is next)

    It should be heavy. Weight is a sign of reliability. If it doesn't work, you can always hit him with it.
