Greetings.

I have a 95 Sahara. NP 231, Dana 35 and 30. Would this be a stock set
up or were there other options on the 95. I am assuming I have open
diffs, but really don't know. It has a hitch on it, but I don't know
if it was part of a tow package, or aftermarket. Could someone
enlighten me?

Thank you,

Greg

Pretty sure this was how every YJ was set up.

Probably. Was limited slip even an option for YJs?

Contact Jeep using the link below, give them your VIN, and ask for a
build sheet for your Jeep:
http://tinyurl.com/2y8l27

That'll give you a list of everything your Jeep originally came equipped
from the factory with, but won't include any dealer-installed extras.

They can have a Trac-Loc, either factory or dealer-installed. While a
Trac-Loc limits slip enough to get you into trouble on icy roads, it
will slip in uneven traction situations, making it less than ideal as an
automatic locker. When that happens, application of the brakes will
stop the free-spinning wheel and restore traction. The Trac-Loc is good
because it does not void the factory warranty, even if dealer installed,
and will have less of a tendency to break the fragile Dana 35c axle. It
is less than optimal because it is not a real locker and requires more
frequent axle fluid changes with a special additive. It can be made to
limit slip more firmly by the addition of another clutch disc pair.

Cheers,

Earle

Hey Earle, you mean "get you out of trouble on icy roads"?

Nope, meant what I said, heh. If you're not going sideways, you
probably don't have one.

Cheers,

Earle
