I guess I'm under the impression that the D44 or 8.8 are ideal for running 35s so if I had the opportunity to swap one in (especially if it's cheap) that it would be worth the effort? I know the Jeepspeed XJs can run races with 8.25/d30 but as I'm planning on touring Alaska in mine I figured...

Yeah, it's definitely too wide... I haven't been around any Titan's so I wasn't sure, thought they were like a Tacoma but they're more like a tundra. Thanks for the help, friends! Y'all saved me a day of lugging around an axle I can't use...

Sorry I didn't notice the link, that's a bounty of info! Thank you so much for your time researching... I guess I'm not great at looking things up yet

Would that be a WMS measurement? That would make it 5" longer than the 8.25 which would be... ridiculous 😆

Sorry for all the posts, guys... I'm not sure how long it will take before I'm allowed to edit posts. In reply to 75SV1, the 79.5 width is for the entire vehicle which could even include fender flares

Good to know, thanks! I'll be sure to bring a tape measure before I throw it in the truck...

There are lockers, yes. As far as brakes I believe someone mentioned that they're beefy enough to possibly require a larger master cylinder but I can't recall what swap was being discussed. I've heard the ZJ brake conversion tends to be biased toward the rear so maybe it's a similar fix

I would edit my last post but apparently I'm not allowed to yet... I'm having trouble gleaning any info on the axle from the net so I'm just going to pick it up today and see what I'd be working with. Also a little off topic but is it a stupid idea to cut some half inch notches in the 3" leaf...

Sounds like a headache! Glad to hear you got it ironed out though 👍 I figure I would use 2" adapters as I was planning on staying at 10.5 anyway ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Howdy y'all, So I found a rear D44 from a 2008 Titan at the local repair shop. Owner said he'd take 25 (twenty-five) bucks for it so I'm wondering if anyone knows if it would be possible to swap my Chrysler 8.25 for it. I believe the Titan's is based on the "Super 44" used in some Corvette and...
