Hi, boys!
I've just been offered a pair of axles for my Cherokee XJ 1988. It's wide track Dana 44's, front and rear, out of a Cherokee Chief. I'm not sure of the year, but I think they will fit in my car with the neccesary modifications. I also know it's another wheel bolt pattern, but that's not much of a problem. How strong are thease axles compared to the stock Dana 44 found in some XJ's or IH Scout? I'm also interested in a Ford 8.8, and have been told that the Ford 8.8 are a little bit stronger than the D44? How do I do the modifications?, my dad has the knowledge, and I've got the money, so he will help me out, the only thing I need is an instruction on how to modify especially the front axle. What is the difference between the "wide track" and the "standard" D44? I know somebody have told me I can use the nuckles off my Dana 30 front axle or something? Anyone out there who could help me on my way.
