dana 44

First time regearing an axle. Watched a lot of videos, read books etc but have a few questions and a problem. This is a stock Dana 44 out of a 2006 LJ. The carrier shims were on the outside of the carrier bearing races. The driver side (carrier side) was .143” and the passenger side (ring...

Hi Chris/All, I recently put my 05 RME TJ up for sale on Autotrader and wanted to announce here if anyone is interested. I really don't want to see it go, but I only drive it 1-2k miles per year and need the garage space. Price is firm for now, but could drop over time depending on interest...

I have completely demolished my spider gears in my dana 35 twice already so it’s time to upgrade this time to something that can handle 35’s! I am trying to find an 8.8 or a Dana 44 to replace my dana 35… What are you all’s recommendations/advice? Thanks in advance!

Currie Dana 44 diff cover. E/W dip stick.

Long story short, when I re-geared my jeep and noticed I had aftermarket axles in my rear dana44 I didn’t count the splines like a dummy… Turns out the prior owner upgraded to 35spline axles (according to the person I was paying to replace the seals as I simply couldn’t be bothered lol)… so the...

Have a 2006 Rubicon LJ, both of the rear axles seals were leaking and making noise so I decided to take them off and press on a new Spicer kit (PLAT-SPICER-KIT90). Both bearings were seated well and moving freely after install. The first axle installed with no end play, but the second one has...

Hey guys, had my axles out and rear end taken apart. (Rear Dana 44) and while inspecting my spider gears notice they’re a bit chipped up. Not realizing I had a Trac-Lok I used my dremel to grind down the ring gear to get the center pin out to change the spider gears only to realize they don’t...

Hey guys. Currently doing an overhaul on my TJ (1998, 4.0 manual trans, Dana 30 in front Dana 44 rear) and I ordered and received these pinion nuts. They look a little weird and haven’t seen anything like them compared to online. Wondering if I got the wrong parts or if these will work? Planned on doing...

Now that my 2003 X has become my daily driver, I’m looking for some advice on ways to create a more capable off-reader that still holds its own on the highways. I live in Central Texas, so being able to drive 75mph is a must if I’m going to get anywhere. Right now, I’ve got the 4.0L with...

Short version: OEM LJ Axle Shafts (Dana 44 Rear Disc & Dana 30 27 Spline No ABS) 1 bad joint - $250 obo

I’ve finally gotten around to throwing the Dana 44 in that I bought about a month ago. I went to inspect the diff before filling it and I found this piece of the inner most clutch disk on passenger side, sitting in the pocket under the pinion,hiding in leftover fluid. Half of that plate is...

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...

Hi I have a 2004 TJ with a 4.0 and a Dana 44 in the rear and Dana 30 in the front. it's been making some weird vibrations and noises while driving. Thought it was the wheel bearings which are bad but not this bad I don't think. I lifted it up and took the wheels off. When i turn the rear axle by...

I pulled this off to replace it with a dual shear setup, cleaned out the grease channels and joint. It came off of a 2005 Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon, but is a universal fit. Price is OBO, does not include shipping

Hello all, Just joined but I’ve been a member of Jeepforum and a few other jeep forums for a while. Looking to buy a front Dana 44 for my TJ. I prefer stock but will consider semi-built if the price is right. Please avoid commenting about the strength of this axle and other axle...

Hey Crew, I'm giving this 2004 Rubicon some much needed attention to the rear diff and cannot find what vent port this is to replace on the back/top of the differential. I've seen an image of a possible curved piece to attach that pipe to. Yes, the diff is leaking oil from the pinion seal and...
