casm, I just wanted you to be aware of what you're getting if you go with this front axle. I agree, it's a great out-of-the-box axle and can stand up to 35s, but so can the axle that is already under your Jeep.
The Rubi front Dana "44" is a low pinion axle with Dana 30 outers; kinda nullifies the whole point of a "beefy" axle.
I found this ad on eBay for a new Rubi frontend. You get a bare housing with inner knuckles and bolt-in bracketry all for a measly $450. :thumbdn: :rolleyes: x eventy-billion...
I'd like to see somebody do this and eliminate the need for a panhard; could you incorporate a bit of triangulation to accomplish this?
Like this, but in a rear application.
