I think I see what your talking about Terry ( up towards the top of the diff cover), ill check it out closer tommorow when I go back. I wonder why this housing looks different than the other 44's?? I doubt someone put this rear end in this one from something else, its a stock hooptie. The axles spin nice and it doesnt bind or make any noises.

Some 44s have the three fins and others only have one.

That doesn't look like my D44 that is sitting in my pickup, which came out of a 1987 2wd XJ. The driver side doesn't have the three horizontal ribs! Like someone said D44's could have vary, I don't know.

As for the "pimple" someone mentioned. Mine has the same "pimple" on the cover, it's now daylight and I can see it much better. I didn't check that last night.

Like I just posted in another thread, I've never seen an '87 that didn't have a D44.......not 100% conclusive, but that's my experience. That build date is an '87.
I've had three 87's with non c-clip dana 35's.

so it its a D44 right??
if so........ 30 spline D44 shafts
yea its a good deal
get new drums and shoes from Auto zone should be 10" x 2.5"
then go to Napa ang get the brake hardware kit both sides(full kit) ...autozone doesnt carry em
you should come in somewhere around $200 total for brakes and axle
then of course ya gotta regear it ..
200-500 depending if you know someone to install gears in itid help ya but it might be a little to far for yoiu to drive
my advise is have it regeared to at least 4:56 then do the front when you get the cash and drop it in
I found mine with 3:55 gears and decent brakes ...just lucky
or and this is reaching
ebay the whole thing

my old 87 came with a 44 and I bought another complete running 87 to get the 44 in my 98. I then sold the 87 for 3500 profit. Get a head on shot of the cover and we will tell you if its a 44. However you should know by now------------Kyle
P.S. I once saw a 44 in a 2wd cherokee and asked the man what year model it was. It was an 87. So far that means I have seen 44s in only the 87 year model. Weird eh??
