Front Differential Bearings

[CodyN1991]

My front differential needs to be rebuilt. I was wondering if anyone knew what bearing kit to use. Are the front and rear differential bearings the same? Its a 3.55. I can't find anything that specifies a bearing kit for the front diff. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks

It's a Dana Super 30 27 spline. Here's a link to a Yukon Master kit that I used when I regeared mine:

Would this work too? I don't want to drop an extra 100 if I don't have too.

No, that looks like its for the Ford 8.8 (rear axle) based on what Dorman's website says.

Try searching for a "Dana Super 30 master kit"....but you need to make sure its for the Ford SUV version not the Jeep. They are very similar but I am told there are some differences in the bearings.
