It is the base model. It will have a Dana 35 rear and Dana 30 front axle with anti-spin and either 3.07 or 3.73 gears. Not a bad Jeep if you don't do much offroad driving. If you do or plan to the Rubicon will be a better package and you get HD Dana 44 axles with locking differentials. This is an out of the box offroader.
I don't know about the jeep, but for the Viper the capacity is 1.44 quarts. The Vipers require synthetic oil Mopar part number 4874469 at $29.34 per quart and limited slip additive Mopar part number 4318060AB at $9.63.
There is no 5th gear overdrive, only 4th gear
IT really depends on which rear differential your Jeep has. They come with 2 options. A Dana 35 and a Dana 44 aluminum housing. The Dana 44 's are known for being noisy. If you have a Dana 44 that has an aluminum housing, it is probably a common noise that you are hearing. It is relatively one of the strongest axles made, however the sound can be annoying. Unless the sound really bothers you, I wouldn't worry too much about it.
About 2 liters
It depends which model Wrangler and which axle (front or rear) you're speaking of. The standard setup was a Dana 30 front and Dana 35 rear. The Wrangler Rubicon, however, had Dana 44 front and rear axles which are a much stronger setup than the Dana 30/35 found in other models.
how much to replace axles on a 2000 bravada
Front about 3.5 pints rear about 5 pints.
If you are talking about a 1997 Jeep Wrangler, you can swap out a rear end from any 97-06 wrangler. You have to consider gear ratios however. The rear needs to match the front or you won't get far. First, determine your current gear ratio, then shop around for another jeep rear end with the same ratio. If you are lucky, you can find a tag on the rear differential with the ratio stamped on it. The 4cyl models came with a lower gear ratio if that's what you are looking for. However, all models use the Dana 35 with a 27 spline axle, which is very weak and not necessarily worth spending money on. It would be better to take a Dana 44 out of a rubicon model, or reconfigure another Dana 44, then regear the front diff. Another option is the ford 8.8 out of a 95 and up explorer. It uses a 31 spline axle shaft and much beefier tubes. It is almost the same width as the dana35 and only requires cutting off the brackety and welding on the correct jeep mounts. As a bonus you get disc brakes as well, and it has the same wheel bolt pattern. Search the web and figure out what's best for you
