44's and 3 link test run

[CRASH]

What axles?

If i read this thread right, I think the axles are 44's, not the tires??? It's kind of hard to decipher.

Didn't look like 44" Boggers.

If you look at the pix, those are NOT 44" tires

This is a teal XJ on 44s.

ok, im about 900% sure kid4lyf knows my jeep isnt on 44" tires, i think hes asking what the dana 44's came from.

and to answer that, the axles are out of a 74 j10 pickup the d300 is out of a 85 cj7

from what I understand, the Dana Axle designation number means that is the max tire size that centersection can handle -

D35 - takes 35's with no problems
D44 - 44" tires
D60 - 60" tires

hence the reason that no cherokee/wrangler with a D30 ever came with more than a 30" tire - thats why the Rubi's have a d44 front end - because they come with 31" MT/R's which are too big for the d30.

Now the Chevy went the other way - and simply counted the bolts in the diff cover - and left the guess work up to the people using the axles

10 bolt, 12 bolt, and 14 bolt...

AMC on the other hand, uses the military tire size spec - as in:

AMC 20 can handle any tire size - as long as the tire isnt more than 20" larger than a rim.

And Eaton is all sorts of fawked up - I still havent figured out the Manufacturer spec for their components


so in the end - this cherokee could have Both - D44's and 44" boggers...

Duh, tire width dude.
Everyone knows you need at least 14 bolts on your diff cover to run a 14" wide tire :doh:

 

[tealcherokee]

ahahaha, awesome, so that means i can run a 44x10?

Simply brilliant. You have my vote for director.

actually it refers to the number of bolts retaining the ring-gear to he carrier, its just coincidental that the cover bolts corespond.

i prefer the max tire width myself.

 

[uvaldetxj]

since when could dana 35's handle 35" tires?

:huh:

 

[JnJ]

Joke.

Don't put yourself down like that.
You deserve plenty of credit for this thread being retarded.

Its not my fault your thread isnt advanced...

(why is this in the Advanced Fab section if this is RETARDED?)



and how much more effort does it take to type out "you" instead of "u"

?
