I spoke with bobby yesterday and he said he is still using the stock case with 35 spline axles on the duece. If it's lasted on that it's going to be just fine for me. So I'm dropping off my axles and third member tomorrow!

I don't consider a bronco II a valid comparison to a fullsize bronco, but I understand... the struggle is real! :lol:

That case looks like it has been ground down on the inside to clear the tone ring. Just beware if you do a new case you will need that clearance before anyone sets up gears.

Yeah I'm just going to use solos vss relocation kit. Just so in the future I can change rear ends or do whatever and not worry about the tone ring.


And normally no I wouldn't compare a bronco II to a full size but the way bobby drives is makes it a valid comparison for me hahaha. Bobby is picking up my axles and 3rd member from my work today and then hopefully this rear end will last a while. If not I may have to finally sack up and buy a good rear end.

But yeah the struggle is very real :lol: :lol: :lol: hahaha. I just bought a house so I probably shouldn't even be giving the bronco right now but I hate seeing it just sit there and there are so many new trails to try out at my house.

Yes the locker is broken and it keeps getting better. Looks like I will be buying a new case after all haha. Atleast I will have the larger carrier bearing now. Gotta love toys, I thought I would be buying new axles and a spool and selling the locker so I wouldn't have much money into fixing the bronco. Now I have to buy axles a new case a spool a vss relocation kit and I have a locker I can't sell. Good times

Yes that is true. I'm not excited about spending so much money on the bronco but atleast I'm spending money and upgrading everything so hopefully this setup will last longer

I know brandon hollander (hollandermotorsports) has a barely used 35 spline spool for a 3.25 case if you need one. You could also use the strange "s series" case instead to save another $80 or so.

Well the new rear end lasted a whole 2 months... I guess it's time I finally buy a Currie.

So now I just need to decide if I want to link the truck or not. Because if I'm spending this much on a rear end it's either I link it now or I never do.
