Is there any way to avoid buying a new driveshaft for my Dana 44 axle swap?

[mrblaine]

Otherwise it would be Tom Woods' Driveshafts.

Why yes, yes it wood.

Just picked up a Dana 44 and Dana 30 to swap out on my TJ that currently has a Dana 35 rear. Reading that the pinion on the 44 is longer than the 35.

I'm about to do a v8 swap and don't want to buy a brand new shaft that I'll only use for three months. Any other options/advice?

I may have one. Pretty sure I do. I used it when I did the Dana 35-Dana 44 swap with the stock 231 TCase. The 44 pinion is longer, but it's not a lot. I can go dig it up if you are interested.

Ah, so you're one of those who doesn't mind if you are helping your uncle jack off a horse while I clearly don't mind helping my Uncle Jack off a horse. Another peek into your lifestyle choices, eh?

No not at all. You sure do like talking about dicks a lot though...

That gives me piece of mind.

Yep, he took a brake...

For all intensive purposes, I could care less.

Rumor has it you played a big part in that

Funny how that worked, I became a target just for agreeing with Jerry’s post.

We aren't going to throw rocks at Jerry, that leaves the folks standing next to him.

I’m afraid to agree with you

Thanks guys, but mostly Blaine for the best laughs I’ve had all day!

It was probably magic. Maybe even Black.

I have a semi-unique perspective on that. If someone asks a question, they generally require or at least desire an answer that is accurate, easy to understand, in context, and appropriate for their problem.

That makes the interaction an equation that needs to achieve parity on both sides in order to arrive at a satisfactory result.

There are literally 10-20 posts per day that I look at and then click back because the person in need did not take just a few seconds to make their crap moderately something more just basic illiteracy.

The only thing that makes forums work is communication, the clearer you can make your issue, the more accurate the answers are.

In a nutshell, I care as much as you do.

Just in case anyone missed this part.



edit; I know, @mrblaine doesn’t need any help getting his ideas out there.
