My credo
it is easier to fix and understand than "her"
8.8 pissed me off for the last time...so i just did dana 60's.

who knew? i always thought the d35 was failure that would drive me over the edge:icon_confused:

i looked at some volvo axles but thats just costly work i dont need to do. at 1600 for the set though it was a tough choice.


only way(till the new mopar axles)i would put a d44 in is if i put 60 shafts and outers on it. after watching people constantly destroy all the bling chromo/super joint 44 stuff, i just couldnt justify it. now the places i have not been going to i can finally try. pf course...after upgrades:D

I used a dana 44 waggy axle. I think it is perfect. It is a few inches wider then stock and the pumpkin is over far enough that you clear the engine cross member. Allows for less lift and still a good amount of up travel.
