Rear Dana 44 advice

[Dylpickle200]

True but if he already has them why not run it? It isn't like they'll ever break in a tj 44.

I got my little brother a tj 44 that had dutchmen 35 spline axles and arb years ago. We weren't going to pull them out to install 30spline. Hes had no problems with that axle behind a 5.2l and 36" sx's.Would i buy them for mine? No,but it isn't the end of the world.

My thoughts exactly! Came across a great deal and a potential brake couldn’t turn me away from that better than ratcheting a log to the side of my tire and limping it home on the 35

Anything can be broken. I won’t name names, but we have a prominent forum members that broke his dana 60 on 35s… multiple times.

Not hating on OP at all, sounds like he’s pretty much figured out what he wants.

I completely understand and know the risks involved this was definitely a consideration but decided on going the 35 route anyway!

Awesome.

Do you plan to carry spare rear shafts?

No sir! I won’t be hopping on obstacles and if I break fly home and fix later
