I looked at Toren's too. I just finished doing my 2010 Explorer Sept. 2021. Eaton Truetracs front and back, They are currently available from Jegs, Amazon, Summit, and others, but not for the 3:55 carrier used in the front differential. I installed 3:73's Yukon Gears in both differentials so the 3.55 carrier break didn't come into play for me. The 8.8 Rear Truetrac has two axle spacers included in the box, use the thicker one only. The thinner one is for Mustang's 8.8 only. The front Truetrac doesn't use axle spacers.I've been looking at Torsens front and rear for a couple of years myself, however, it seems that the 8.8 31 spline and Dana 30 are ALWAYS out of stock. I've grown tired of waiting and am looking at the Eaton option, but I've been unable to get a solid real answer as to if they are really compatible with our circlip setups.
Has anyone actually done eaton true tracs front and rear at this point?
Thanks for the quick reply! I'm going to go ahead and pull the pin on some Truetracs front and rear, and some ford and dana 3.73 gears.I looked at Toren's too.

I love them, this is my daily driver. I have been using Eaton's for over fifty years, have yet to have one let me down! With these "new to me" truetrac's you will never know they are there. Very quiet operation very similar to an open differential. No chirp chirp chirp going around a corner with wet pavement like a LSD clutch carrier. Pure traction where and when it's needed.
those look like there for the jeeper d30s. ibdont think they fit the X, which had the dana super 30 iircI bought richmond gear EXCel D30450TJ for the front. Does anyone know if this going to work.
Thays where the confusion comes from the first post/write up states that regular dana 30 ring and pinion will work. And before that it states jeep kj liberty and 99-04 grand cherokee. I ordered these thru rock auto for a 99-04 grand cherokee.those look like there for the jeeper d30s. ibdont think they fit the X, which had the dana super 30 iirc

I'm guessing you haven't regeared or read any of this thread?Jeep Dana 30 and Ford IFS Dana 30 are not the same axle.
Ford produces their own Dana30 by Dana Spicer license with several changes.
They do not share parts with Mopar.
Ring and pinion dude. My question is about that. No lockers. And dana 30 super from ford shares the same carrier and ring and pinion as jeep Dana 30 just different bearingsyou would know that if you actually read the entire thread. So your not answering my question and blurting out something you obviously don't know so yes. I guess I do need luckanyways
i have no idea what for do you need front locker with IFS plus progressive rsc but whatever...good luck
Splines where the same and the gear size is different because it's 4.56 instead of 3.55.Looks like even the splines diameter are not the same too
As well as the overall gear shape.
So what the Jeep axles do share with Ford?
