Dana 35 Axle Parts for Jeep

The Dana 35 (sometimes called an AMC 35 for the earliest models) was available in two configurations. The most common was a standard cut which was used in rear solid (beam) applications. It was also used in IFS applications, some of which used reverse cut gears while others used standard cut gears.

This lightweight rear axle features a 7.562" ring gear diameter, 26-spline pinion, 8 ring gear bolts (3/8"-24), 10-bolt cover, and carrier breaks typically at 3.54/3.73 (3.54 & lower on one carrier, 3.73 & higher on another), with factory ratios ranging from 3.07 to 4.56 and aftermarket options extending to 4.88, 5.13, or higher for tire upsizing (31-35"+) and improved torque/crawl. Known for good strength in stock form for mild off-road but often upgraded due to weakness under heavy abuse (e.g., larger tires, high power), common improvements include stronger chromoly 27-spline or 30-spline axle shafts, fresh bearings/seals rebuilds, regearing for power restoration, or traction devices (lockers like Spartan, Eaton Truetrac, or OX) to enhance grip—while many builders eventually swap to Dana 44 for extreme use. Browse a wide variety of high-quality Dana 35 components, including precision bearings, heavy-duty shafts, ring and pinion gear sets in available ratios from trusted brands, traction devices like lockers, and installation kits, to help you rebuild, regear, or strengthen your XJ, YJ, TJ, or similar Dana 35-equipped Jeep for dependable trail performance and durability.
