There is no aftermarket purchaseable C-Clip eliminator for the Dana 35 TTB. However, you can do this to the Dana 35 for a c-clip eliminator..

stay away from Cclip elminators. They arent up to the task for most 4x4's. They are mostly used on straight line cars, which is one of the reasons you dont find them for your application.

x2. Thought about it for a 12 bolt I was going to use on my Zuk... In all the reading I did, I got the impression that it just wasn't the right thing to do for a 4x4.

If you are running disc brakes you dont need them anyway. think about how is the axle going to slide out?
