dana 44 swap

[2003liberty]

Its time for my swap I'm wantn to go with a dana 44 under the front of my kj. I don't have anything yet. I want my bolt pattern to be the same same the rear. Need someone to do all the work at a fair price. If I know what axle to buy then I could possibly go get a used one

I saw a 04 KJ setting on 8.25 and HP Dana30, all pulled from an XJ, if that helps at all. The HP D30 is from a early XJ and the 8.25 29 Spline is from 00-01 Models only. With some aftermarket shafts or the unbreakable CV shafts, you could run 35's

Rides of Conover is very fair on pricing and does great work.

you should ride over one day so i can check out your set up.

Give us a call at ECGS. We can take care of it for you no problem if you would like.

I am betting that you are going to need a HP 44 for the front. We can build you one without a problem. If you need a base axle, you want 76-77 F150.

Let me know. I may be able to meet up this weekend to take a look at it so we can do a decent price estimate and discuss all your options.

 

[userbmx1315]

dang, whats your name? i rode with so many ppl that i cant realy remember many.

Matt. Idk when ill be off today I'm thinkn around 7 tonight or later.. it basically stays down near carolina speedway

Only dana 44 your going to get with that bolt pattern for the wheels is a Rubicon Dana 44 from a TJ. You would be better off going with a 44 from something else and getting wheel adapter for the rear axle to change it over to match what ever front you get.

i would go waggy cause its much closer to the wms you have now. then use chevy spindels and ford hubs. then you can get some adapters from 5 on 4.5 to 5 on 5.5 for the back. that will give you the same wms front and rear and the same bolt pattern.
