DJ-5 Postal Jeep Dana 44 for YJ
 

Hello-

Was wondering if anyone has any input on if a Postal Jeep Dana 44
rearend would work on a 94 wrangler to replace the 35

I am seeing this axle on craigslist listed as:

-----------
DJ-5 Postal Jeep rear axle, narrow Dana-44, 1 piece axles, 30 spline,
5-lug, 5.5" bolt pattern 3.07 geared differential

http://denver.craigslist.org/pts/180866874.html
---------------

I understand I would need to gear it to match the Dana 30 front end.
And probably fabricate the leaf mounts?? And input would be helpful.

Only if you own a machine shop....

Note the words: 'Narrow Dana-44'

I'm thinking how many millions of miles do these axles have on
them. Magnaflux would surely find cracks.
