I'm able to pick up a 84 grand wagoneer axle for cheap, the problem is that it has the vaccum disconnect. Can it be converted to a single shaft from a 80-82 non CAD style? Or is it a waste of time? according to Mr.N's site, he says to steer clear form this axle.
Any advise would be appreciated.
It would probably be the same thing as the vac setup on the D30 in which case i say look for a cable actuator or new shafts and a cover plate.
I'm personally for the cable actuator if you can find one.. You could put in an automatic style locker and use the cable to make it selectable, you would have the option of 2 low gearing too. But maybe that's just me haha. A D44 is strong enough i think you wouldn't have to worry about the strength of the disco axle shaft. Especially in an xj.
I could be wrong but aren't the waggy 44s vac setup in with the carrier? I could be wrong but we just junked a waggy 44 axle housing and the line were all at the diff cover, and I thought thats why people either steer clear or deals with them.

Yes it is on the carrier? Thats why I thought maybe the carrier and drivers side axle shaft could be replaced with a non CAD style.
Thanks for the input!
that's what i'm refering to. can i actually just repace the carrier, and a the driver side shaft? because the the hole for the diconnect is on the diff cover if i'm not mistaken? i'm not sure if this is possible? i can't find any info on this conversion.
