I've got a bent axleshaft in my d44 (rear) and I'm wanting to expand my search since xj44's are few and far-between and new axleshafts run nearly 200$,
will a zj44 axleshaft fit in my 44? they seem to be alot more common

the pass side is the bent one, (the long one 29.75")

im going to say no. the ZJ 44 is a different type of D44. it has an aluminum housing and a different pinion and whatnot. but im not 100% sure it wont work.
