Every dana 44 I have pulled from a factory tow package vehicle has been 3.54. I think 3.73 d44's may end up being a rumor.

I have seen a lot of 3.73 dana 35's from 85/86 tow package rigs.
 
any xj dana 44 ive ever seen has been 3.54. ive never seen a 3.73 or 3.07 though. count the ring teeth and the pinion teeth and divide worst case scenario...
 
I asked one of the knowlegable guys at my local jeep dealership if XJ's ever came with 3.73's. He said they neever did. Jeep did put 3.73's in some grand cherokees. This may be how the rumor started.

They did. Mostly 84-86 though.
 
Hmmmm, were those the CV style D30's? or did they put them in the High Pinion ones too?
 
Thanks for straightenig that/me out.
