Thank you, glad it can help you out!!

That's why I did the video, I could not find any details on the kit when I looked. Thanks for watching!!

I don't know, I never had a JK, so I can't say what is different.

You can use loctite, but use the blue medium kind, if you use the red you will need to heat it with a torch to take it back off.

Awesome! Thank you for reply.

No, no problems at all with the tube seals, they have worked great

So I can partially answer your question. What I know is the difference between the factory XJ rotor and the rotor for the free spin kit is the inner diameter for the free spin kit is larger. So all you would have to do is chuck up a new XJ rotor and open up the hub hole to fit the free spin hub. The kit does come with a set of rotors already machined. with the free spin kit, the rotor is held to the rear side of the hub with the pressed in wheel studs, instead of slip fitting over the outside of the studs like factory. What I don't know is how the kit would work on the WJ knuckles, as I have not done that conversion and don't know if the WJ knuckles use the same bearing set up as the XJ. I know the WJ brake rotors are larger in outer diameter, but I don't know any of the other measurements for a WJ rotor, so you would have to dig into that to see if it would fit.

Less wear on front driveshaft, and able to use a spartan locker in the front and still daily drive it with the Hubs unlocked and in 2wd nothing is spinning. That and very slightly better mileage.

@@ludercoarms would you say 1-2 MPG or more like an extra 10 miles per tank lol. I was wondering if it felt and less sluggish too.

@@ksenkow honestly it’s kind of hard to say. I replaced a leaking exhaust manifold at around the same time. I had a noticeable increase in mileage, but not sure if it was the hubs or the exhaust that most contributed to it. It’s still sluggish, but on mine that is more a need to change out my gears than anything else. Like I said, my main goal was to be able to run in 2wd and take the spartan locker out of the equation for on the street, and it does that with flying colors.

The kit pushes the front wheels out, but less than 1 inch, about 3/4 of an inch. I did not bother with spacers since I am running the Jeep Liberty disc brakes on the rear, and they push the wheel out about 1/2 inch, so you can not tell by looking at the XJ. Even without the rear discs, I don't think it would be noticeable enough to bother with spacers.

If I recall, and it has been a while, the stock rotors would not fit over the manual locking hub at all. The rotors that came in the kit are stock rotors, but they opened up the center to fit the locking hub. Not sure of the exact dimension, but I think it was more than just a hair, not sure how well it would work trying with hand held power tools. I am hoping to change my oil and rotate tires this weekend, and I will try to remember to get a comparison if I have time.

So I looked at it today while I was rotating my tires and there is no way for me to get a measurement without pulling the hubs and axles because I forgot that the rotors go on the back of the hub and are held on by the back side of the studs. I will be re-rearing that axle in the next few months, so that will be when I can get an actual measurement.

@@ludercoarmsaccording to Yukon the opening is 3.575. And if I remember correctly it was about 3/4” larger than stock. I’ve been asking around and people say the bearings like to wear out so I’m kinda on the fence.

@@Digitydan The kit comes with good Timkin bearings, each hub takes a set47 and a set45 (if you need to buy a spare set). In the kit they come in a blister pack like most Grizzly kits. You have to be very careful about checking that the proper bearing and race get matched up in each set. I know this because I assumed that they would be matched in the package, but found that they were not. I had all the proper pieces, but they were packed mixed, and are very close in size. Don't know if that's what happened to them. So far knock on wood I have had no bearing failures.

Good info! I’ve been asking around on FB on I get a lot of responses that the 07 kit is weak. However, I have yet to get one response from someone who actually has the kit on their own rig and regrets it. I guess I’ll just have to give it a shot, or put 60’s under my rig instead 😂

Axels parts number 🙏🏼

Very little noticeable change in mileage for me, maybe 1 mile per gallon. But I was not really looking for much in that department. My main purpose was to be able to run a Spartan locker in the front axle for off road without it effecting my daily driving.

Very little, about 1 MPG. But way less wear and tear on the front drivetrain, and the ability to run a spartan locker in the front axle was why I did it.
