found my jeep!

after searching high and low I found one in manor, texas. The green one I was looking at a few weeks ago didn't have the rear axle I wanted so I passed on it.

Danas are all that come in the newer Jeeps(most YJ's+ I believe). I'm pretty sure that some YJ may have come with an AMC rear end. I searched high and low for a D44 rear because the 35's are usually the weak point and will only hold up to the stress of a 33" tire.

Yeah, mine has those Danas too :)
Is this going to be your daily driver, or a fun car? Mine is both. I have found that it is not bad at all on the highway, and it is awesome in making tight turns and backing into tight parking spots.

Both!:) That is why it was so important that I find a Dana 44 rear, with 33's(which was what I was planning on running) there is still a pretty good chance of breaking the D35. With this one, I get built 44's with discs and lockers too!

awesome! decided to go leaf-sprung I see....those are usually much cushier and have less suspension breakage than the coil setups anyway ...

you got the axles right....never lock a 35! I have a high pinion front that is locked, but my rear 44 is still in pieces in my garage so my 35 rear is open. I have to carry spare shafts and everything needed to do a field replacement....sucks!
hopefully I can spend the money in the next year or two to finish the 44 build and throw it under the rig :)

good for you...can't wait to see pics!

It has moser shafts in the rear and it comes with the stock ones as well for replacements. I will be looking to Superior for front shafts. They have an awesome warranty and even better customer service.
