Title: Dana 35c bearing part numbers
Post by: keegantj on August 20, 2010, 09:51:48 AM: My Grand Cherokee 1998 4.0 litre petrol needs a rear axle rebuild. The bearings that are in it are worn and I can't read the numbers stamped in the bearing casing to order new ones. Does anyone know the Timken pat numbers for the 2 pinion bearings and the diff side bearings, thanks, Tim.

Standard kit is DRK-335, Master kit is DRK-335MK. Page 68 tells you what each kit contains.

Ringing Lighthouse would probably be easier.

Hope this helps, Maf

Yeah I'm not pointing the finger at Lighthouse as it could well be that their supplier charges them a higher price, but along with seals if you buy through a more direct route you can save a packet, plus they can be on the shelf in your home town. Worth a go eh?

Has anyone found a cheaper source of UJ's?

Just measure it and take the dimensions - he got them in on his next delivery about an hour later :greggmo:
