    Has anyone ever swapped axles from Rubicon to Sport and Sport to Rubicon?

    Anyone ever swap axles between a Rubicon and Sport and put the Dana 30/d35s in the rubicon? I have access to a rubicon and the owner doesn't care about lockers and Dana 44. I have a sport and would love to do a direct swap. Anyone have experience doing this type of trade and making both jeeps run...

    Spartan locked Dana 44 shifting issue

    I installed a Spartan on my Dana 30 awhile ago and had no issues other than characteristics of the locker that appear common. That being said I decided to lock the rear on the Dana 44 since it is not my daily driver. When I do drive it the mechanism acts as I had expected except for one thing: When I...

    Looking to begin a TJ build but stuck with Dana 30/Dana 35 3.07 pigs... whomp whomp. Looking for either a Dana 35/Dana 44 rear with 3.73+ gears or a set of axles with 3.73+ gears. Hoping to find them in NY/New England for pickup.

    Built Dana 30 with 5.13 gears vs Built Dana 44 with 5.38 gears

    2004 Jeep LJ Auto 42RLE Dana 30/Dana 44 Have 35s waiting to be put on. I’ve seen recommendations for my setup at 5.38 gears, but the front Dana 30 can only do 5.13. Should i try to find a front rubicon Dana 44 to get the larger size R&P to fit? Plan on building both axles up to support 35s with either choice...

    How compatible is a JK Dana 44 with a TJ?

    Looking at going to a Dana 44 in my '97 TJ but not finding any off a TJ Rubicon in my budget. I did find one off a JK Rubicon not too far away and a decent price though. How compatible are these 2 axles? I know I could pick one up from various other vehicles for a decent price, but the main...

    Swapping a TJ Dana 35 with a JK Dana 44?

    I was driving today and for whatever reason, the Driver's side UCA Bracket on my Dana 35 came off. This has the track bar on it and I need to figure something out. I'm saving for a full Genright stretch, Dana 70's with links, coilovers, the works... BUT I need to figure this crap out in the meantime...

    Currie iron differential cover

    Anyone have any experience with the Currie Rockjock 44 series iron differential covers? Clearance isn’t supposed to be an issue with them and I like the look of the red texture. The Currie name is usally solid all around for about everything they make but don’t see much information on these...

    How to identify axles on a Jeep Wrangler TJ (and what the difference is with each axle)

    I'm surprised an article like this didn't already exist on the site, especially given the number of people who ask how to identify which axles they have on their Jeep Wrangler TJ. The goal here is to give future TJ owners and new TJ owners a guide on how to identify which axles they have under...

    Ford 8.8 Axle Swap

    The factory Dana 35 rear axle found in most TJ Wranglers is a little on the light side, and if you run larger-than-stock tires, you’re likely looking at an eventual failure. If you want to turn really big tires, wheel abusively, or push gobs of power into your rear axle, you’ll probably want to...
