    on my 94 it came with 235's and has a red 20 tooth speed sensor gear. i first ordered an 18 tooth to get everything back to stock with 31's. the 18 tooth was too small so(wouldnt contact the t case gear) Rob exchanged it for a white 19 tooth gear and it's dead on. THANKS ROB!you will prob can go with 20, or 19 and be ok but make sure you get the c clip that holds the gear on.

    So I have a 95 xe and just swapped to 31's. I have the red gear now. I bought a blue thinking that was correct but its not. Should I get a 19t white one now?

  2. Thanks everyone i got it all back in. For the driver side cv axle I had to use a thinner snap ring. 

     

    The passenger side did not have a brass spacer at all.  I had to run to the junk yard and buy one. The space goes one the cv axle shaft right before the spindle. It goes brass spacer, grease seal, needle bearing (thrust bearing) as shown on page fa16. The tapered end of the brass spacer goes towards the cv axle. Without that space I would have had close to 1/4in axle end play.

     

    I hope this helps someone.

  3. I've spent the last 3 days searching for through threads for help. So far all the tips I've seen don't address my problem. 

     

    I'm replacing my cv axles and bearings. Im reassembling everything now but I can't get the stupid snap ring back on.

     

    I'm confident the bearings are seated in the hub.

     

    I'm stuck and can't get my cv axle shift out far enough to get my snap ring on. I've jacked the lower ball joint up but that hasn't helped. I have recheck everything and made sure their in the right order but no cigar. 

     

    The replacement axle came from advance auto and im curious should i keep the old brass spacer that goes that on the original axle or can I just remove it. If I remove it I have about 3/16th of an inch space to put the snap ring on.

    With it on i have less than a the width of my screw driver tip in space. The new axle did not have a spacer.

     

    I have tried using vise grips to pull the axle out, tapping on the back if the axle , and using a c clamp to hold the axel tight against the hub assembly with no progress. 

     

    Help!!! I really need this complete by Monday.

  5. I hate to revive an old thread but after searching I can't find any help.
