There's a bone stock d300 in this rig. He broke the case in half (was the result of a bad mount) but has never broken anything else in the d300.Buggy Buildup

had two d300's in fsj's
one in my current chief running a 401 4.10s 33's and 5spd towing a fair amount and the other is in my old j20 with a 401 and 36's both were stock t-cases both have been wailed on the j20 is still going 15 years later in montana on a ranch pulling irrigation lines everyday and then rock crawling when not being used for that, last i heard the new owner put a 4:1 gear set in it and had up graded to a detroit in the front also but still was running stock inputs and outputs.
the cherokee has a little nicer life but still tows alot i did swap in a 32 spline tailhousing recently i did that for the oportunity to utilize the flange style CV
I like the D300 over the 205 in a FSJ because you can clock it up where as the np205 hangs down so far. also i like the size of it because that allows for better routing of the exhaust and the ability to twin stick it, FSJ's should have had twin sticks fromt eh factory.Last edited by dusty; 10-16-2007, 08:01 AM.Cherokee S Chief Widetrack W/ Cummins 4bta Diesel, 91 dodge intercooler, hy35/9, AC NV4500/D300 3.54's Ploks 4" BJ's w/ 33's, scout 33 gal fuel tank ( Sold, to a good fsj home)

My J20 is equipped with a D300 that has 32 spline shafts, 1410 yokes, 4:1 kit, twin sticks, and a solid aluminum mount (1/4") to a custom crossmember (that has rubber bushings). The solid mount has been the only way I can avoid breaking ears on the slip yoke.592hp and 44" Vs..plowing a field near you!

I am just using poor internet sarcasm. I have heard soooooo many times how the dana 300 won't hold up in an FSJ.

What about trans clearance? I remember reading something about issues hitting the pan on a 727. Are any of you guys running this trans? If so, how have you dealt with this problem?
Also, what yokes are you running?Jared
