Dana 44 - 30 spline axle question
What is different between an open diff Dana 44 - 30 spline axle and a
Trac-Lok diff Dana 44 - 30 spline axle? I am interested in
purchasing the Powertrax No-Slip traction system for my 2000 Wrangler
and I see that they have two different part numbers for open vs.
Trac-Lok Dana 44 axles.

Why don't you finish one thread before starting a bunch more about the
same thing?

Re: Dana 44 - 30 spline axle question
There is no difference.
But if I were you, I would go for a Detroit Locker over the No-Slip. I
have a No-Slip in my front axle and a Detroit Locker in my rear Dana 44.
But a No-Slip in the rear would not be fun to drive on a daily driver
Jeep, its manners are pretty bad... nowhere near as good as the Detroit
Locker's are. Most any shop will install a Detroit Locker for only $150
or so because the only thing that needs to be set up is the backlash. A
Detroit Locker is FAR stronger and FAR better behaved on the street.
And I don't care what Powertrax's ads say for the No-Slip. It's fine in
a front axle but in the rear, it BANGS, LURCHES, SNAPS, etc. with far
greater frequency than you would enjoy.

Re: Dana 44 - 30 spline axle question
Mike, I apologize if I violated any group regulations. It is my
opinion that my threads are mutually exclusive:
How do you determine if you have a limited slip diff without removing
the diff cover?
What is different on an open diff Dana 44 axle vs. a limited slip diff
Dana 44 axle?
Do all 2000 Wrangler factory installed Dana 44 diffs have the limited
slip?
Via your help I have determined that 1) I do have the limited slip and
2) all 2000 Wrangler factory equipped Dana 44 diffs did 'not' have
limited slips.
So I would say that those threads are indeed finished.
I love you man!
