Built Dana 44 Rear Axle: $850.00 or Best

[Vanimal]

craigslist. i just noticed yours wasnt an xj d44, but i wouldnt think it would be a huge deal.
list it in the san diego section. got tons of calls on it down here. the guy who got it was about to drive to apple valley to buy one for 850.

Hah, thanks! I've run it several times on CL, no hits.

I'll do again.

 

[Vanimal]

remember, it's tax season. wait a month or two, when people get their refunds, all the big dollar stuff they've been holding off on (like your axle) will be purchased.

 

[Skwerly]

Good point; thanks, Van!

Wow hell of a deal. Wont part with those shafts, with stock shafts in the deal would you?

I'd take the brakes.

 

[desertjr]

I have stock shafts to replace the chromos

 

[Skwerly]

Haha, me too. I want to sell this thing whole and be done with it. If I part it out, I'm going to be stuck with the huge housing, which is half the problem in the first place.

So, question... Is this still a 5x4.5 pattern, or is it something different?

 

[Skwerly]

I'm 99% sure it's XJ pattern, but I'll measure to be sure in the morning.

While you're at it, would you mind double checking the width? WMS-WMS would be great plus the width between the backing plates... Want to make sure this will work in my rig. Thanks,

I got swamped like heck today. I'll measure the axle first thing tomorrow morning and get the numbers on here. Sorry, gang.

Ha! Here is my original CL ad. I had measured the axle.

For sale is a really strong Dana 44 rear axle. I got this from a guy for my Cherokee, but the track width was a tad too short. I have had the axle looked at and it appears to be from a Honda Passport.

The width of the axle, from backing plate to backing plate is 53”

Features:

Dynatrac alloy axle shafts

Disc brakes

4.88 gear set

The ad I saw when I bought the axle said it was Auburn-locked, but I have my doubts. I have verified the 4.88s.

The spring pads were taken off the axle so I could relocate them for my Cherokee before I realized axle was too short. Spring pads come with it and are ready to be welded on wherever you’d like them.

I paid $900 for the axle, asking $650 or best offer. This is a strong piece of equipment that's in really good shape. The shafts alone run over $600.

[Skwerly]

Oops, WHEEL mounting surface. That'll teach me to type outside LOL!

Seems WMS to WMS is real close to 59 inches.

Seems WMS to WMS is real close to 59 inches.

ok.

So one will need bigger offset wheels or a small wheel spacer to run it.
