My Yj has a stock D30 up front, I have a 8.8 that I want to install in the rear,

question is which front diff should I go with to match the rear's width & strength?

Thank You!
 
what size tires are you going to run?

The Dana 30 will hold up on 35's anything bigger would be bad though.

I'm running 8.8 and Dana 30 on 35" MTR's.
 
prob the closest, depending on what the 8.8 is out of (such as an Explorer), both width and strength, would be a front Dana 44.
 
the 8.8 is only like 2" shorter than the Dana 30.

You can not tell they are different on my Jeep.

Save your money and get some chromo shafts or locker for the Dana 30.
