My reasoning for running the wagoneer D44s are the length. Last I looked, I thought the 9" came in 65 or 68" options. I am not really interested in having that width. Remember that the stock axles(D25 and D41) were only 51" from WMS to WMS. Now I have ran an 8.8 in the back of my old YJ that worked very well although the 8.8 is a C-Clip axle.
The Toyota axles are interesting but I do not know enough about them to have an opinion one way or the other. Guess I need to do some more reading.
Lets say I do get the wagoneer D44s. Lets also assume that it is the NON Quadratrac version(centered rear). What are common weak links in these axles aside from U-joints etc failing. I am contemplating putting better shafts in both but am wondering what other parts would fail.
These suggestions are awesome. Really makes me pause and give more thought to the build.
Thanks yall.
