D44 was standard on Rubicons, optional on Sports & Saharas. That goes
for pretty much all years of the TJ. Of course, that's just in the USA.
Maybe the UK market was different. ;)

It was also standard equipment on the rear of 04-5 TJL's.

For the record, this is the 3rd Jeep Wrangler I've driven. I pass them down
to my boys. I own 4. I moved into the 08 Rubicon from an 04 Rubicon, and
like everybody, I wasn't sure how I'd like it. I've driven it for 2 months
now and have to say I love it. It is a completely different ride/drive.
Much quieter, soft top up or down. It will even tell you the outside
temperature on the dash (and inside temp when the top's down :-)) Good
family fun - two thumbs up.
