Akira said:PS. Skier, I believe I have just found my rear Dana 44!!!! Kinda pricy though, askin 400 for it!?!?! So, i guess in your face my friend!hahJk
CanMan said:Welcome dude! $400 for an XJD44 is about right. But, for that price, get an 8.8. The shop I work at has 2, brackets already cut off and ground down. Give Avanteone(John) of Auburn Car Repair a PM, or a call at 253-939-5019. He can also get you the RE lift, if you dont already have it.
If you need anything installed, it can be done there too.

Yeah, I remember trying to rock your rig out of the snow...not fun. You've also got the Wrangler transmission and I kept missing reverse; apparently it's a little different than an AX-15.cherotron said:Thats where I'm at right now.. it's kinda sorta sucks balls.. alot.
