Re: Dana 44 on YJ
No way... too narrow. The rare, wide track 86' D44 might work. Look at
Scout or Wagoner axles (they are a bit wider, I think... but "wider is
better").

: A D44 from a pre-76 CJ will be too narrow for a YJ. Best fit is from a
: Scout, or the rather hard to find late '86 CJ7. You can alos look for one
: from the Commanche pickup, which will need the spring plates removed and
: installud under the axle.
Comanche's are spring-under from factory.
