Hi Sandman,
I think the Dana Corporation has already moved off shore:

There's something about the Dana 44 ring and pinion used in the
Rubicon and Toyota that tells me they are made in China:

Lon,

Dana is not actually in default yet. They have a thirty day grace period on
a missed bond payment. That bankruptcy court is going to place a higher
priority on axle production than paying bills, at least in the near term.
They have to do that, to preserve equity, so that there will be something
for creditors to collect. For this reason, I don't think that there will be
any interruption in axle supplies soon, although Jeep and its parents may
reconsider their long term axle sourcing strategy. You can use
transmissions and engines as a model for what may happen. Jeep has changed
suppliers of transmissions and engines several times in the past, and the
current Wrangler, for example, continues to look about the same as its
predecessors.
