Hello, iam new here and i dont own a cherokee. i just have questions about the dana 30, and ive asked other ranger guys but i thought it would be better to ask the cherokee guys them selves. but any way i have a 94 ford ranger standard cab short box 2wd and i want to put a solid axle under it and i now that the cherokee is pretty close to the same width as my explorer axle i have under it so i figure it will work nicely, but i have some worries about the dana 30 and if it would be strong enough under my truck or if i should just go strait to a dana 44 and shorten it to the width of my truck. but the good thing i see about the cherokee dana 30 is that its the same bolt pattern as my ranger so i wont have to go buy another set of rims and tires, but my main concern is strength.
thanks in advance - Dustin

If you're considering anything north of 35s just go straight to a Dana 60/14 bolt combo.

I believe the explorer 8.8 is about 1" shorter WMS to WMS than a d35/c8.25, so you'd probably want to run at least 1/2" spacers or get smaller backspaced wheels for the rear to keep the tire edges the same.
Jeep C8.25 WMS-WMS = 60.75"
Ford Explorer 8.8 WMS-WMS = 59.625"
Jeep C8.25 WMS-WMS = 60.75"
Ford Explorer 8.8 WMS-WMS = 59.625"

Econoline E100/150 = 5x5.5
Econoline E250/350 = 8x6.5
Jeep Cherokee = 5x4.5
Hub bore size is also different
Econoline E100/150 = 87mm
Econoline E250/350 = 123.9mm
Cherokee = 71.5mm
