Re: 95 yj axle woes
Seems to me I remember XJ's to be spring over? I was all set to pick
over a backyard full of XJ's for various axle parts, no go on all of them.

Re: 95 yj axle woes
Correct, and some of the XJ's were not Danas, but Chrysler's 8.25, which is
closer in strength to a 44. Won't be a direct swap in without some welding.
A popular swap is a Ford 8.8 out of an Explorer. Just make sure you get the
right ratio.

appropriate/an easier swap? is the ratio all id have to check?
