Thanks, I really appreciate all the knowledge. Any great deals of 44s? LOL!
Rare and when they pop up they're usually top dollar. Id drop down to 33s as mentioned or upgrade to the super35 from Revolution Gear and Axle.

Thanks! 33’s it is until he can save up enough to run 35’s...LOLRare and when they pop up they're usually top dollar. Id drop down to 33s as mentioned or upgrade to the super35 from Revolution Gear and Axle.
At a minimum: 33's, 4.56/4.88, 1541H rear axles, 5-760x front axle ujoints, ZJ steering swap.Thanks! 33’s it is until he can save up enough to run 35’s...LOL
Here are two types of Dana 35 differentials, neither has a locker. Both are considered "open" which means without a locker. If yours looks like either of these there's no locker present.

Yep, that’s what it looks like. I can’t remember which one and I’m not with the Jeep at the moment. So I guess no, it doesn’t have lockers...Here are two types of Dana 35 differentials, neither has a locker. Both are considered "open" which means without a locker.

Not a bad thing, considering your current situation.Yep, that’s what it looks like. I can’t remember which one and I’m not with the Jeep at the moment. So I guess no, it doesn’t have lockers...
Just saw where another guy on here is parting out his 2001 Sport with a Dana 44. Would this work for mine?

That would be great, but you'll need to regear the front axle at that point to match the 3.73 rear end that Dana 44 has. Figure another 6-8 hundred bucks for that, or remove the front driveshaft and not allow it to go in 4wd.
Thanks! I’ll see what I can get the 44 for.That would be great, but you'll need to regear the front axle at that point to match the 3.73 rear end that Dana 44 has. Figure another 6-8 hundred bucks for that, or remove the front driveshaft and not allow it to go in 4wd.
I didn't see what type of Jeep it was...TJ for JK? JK is a no go without a bunch of weldingThanks! I’ll see what I can get the 44 for.
2001 Sport. That’s a TJ right?I

It’s a TJ, I believe a 2000 or 2002 Sport. It’s a guy on the forum parting it out.I

That’s great! I’m on it. I’m about an hour and a half away from the seller, so that’s a bonus. Thanks guys!It’s a TJ, I believe a 2000 or 2002 Sport. It’s a guy on the forum parting it out.
@Jeepin’ that Dana 44 will work. What I would do is get it and just regear both axles to the final ratio you want with your transmission and tire size. If you could get it for $600-$1000 it would be worth it.
simply can't imagine 35" tires with 3.07 gears. I'm currently running 30.5" tires with 3.07 gears, 5 speed manual and 6 cylinder and it's horrible. Getting 14.5 mpg which isn't bad, but 5th gear is useless, and reverse is way too fast.
Yes, I missed that part. IMHO, you will need to regear both axles to keep the 35's...but if you're trying to keep your costs down, sell the 35's (if they are worth anything) get 33's and just regear the front. It won't be ideal (3.73 is a bit high even for 33's) but it will at least go down the road without needing a mile to get up to speed.2001 Sport. That’s a TJ right?
