2) Drive vehicle over formica board until one rear wheel is
in the center of board and paper. Place a block of wood 2" high and a
minimum of 3" wide in front of one of the front wheels.
3) Open throttle gradually attempting to slowly drive vehicle
over block of wood. If paper slips out of position, reposition paper
and repeat test. If vehicle drives over block of wood, axle is
functioning properly.
DANA 4-PINION POWER-LOK
1) With engine off and transmission in "N", raise one wheel
off ground. Block both front and rear wheels of opposite side. Install
adapter tool across 2 wheel studs and attach torque wrench to center
of tool.
2) Observe torque required to continuously turn wheel
smoothly through several revolutions. Repeat test for opposite side.
If differential is okay, torque should be 40-200 ft. lbs. (54-272 N.
m). Disregard breakaway torque. Use rotating torque only.
NOTE: Exploded view of Chrysler Motors Trac-Lok differential was
not available from manufacturer.
REMOVAL & INSTALLATION
See DANA SEMI-FLOATING or FULL-FLOATING AXLE article in this
section.
OVERHAUL
DANA 2-PINION TRAC-LOK
NOTE: For front axle shaft and bearing removal, see articles on
DANA FULL-FLOATING AXLES or 4WD STEERING KNUCKLES in this
section. With the exception of ring gear and differential
side bearings, Chrysler Motors does not recommend disassembly
of differential. If repair is required, manufacturer
recommends replacing entire unit as an assembly.
Disassembly (Jeep)
1) Using 2 screwdrivers, remove pinion snap rings. Using a
brass drift and a hammer, remove pinion shaft from case. Install Step

switch.
Fuse C Taped to engine wiring
harness, by alternator.
Fuse D Taped to engine wiring
harness, near power steering
switch.
