I still need a front. I have one i got from Derek (jmax) but its about 3/4" to short. thinking i need to track down a auto shaft and i might have a manual? idk though kinda odd. Derek said when he swapped his D44 he had to have them shortened not extended... kinda confused lol probably have to have one made.

with being how big a d30 is compared to a d44 that makes sense. MAYBE?

yeah, its gets a little confusing because the pinion on the D30 is shorter then the D44. So it should have to be shortened, but i stretched my front axle out about 2-2.5" thinking this would compensate and my stock DL should work... however i am now short.

Derek said when he did it the pinion is longer to the point that even though he stretched his about 3" he still had to have it shortened lol...

idk ill measure it tomorrow and get one made out of mine, then not worry about it again lol.

So after 6 hours slcxj and I finally got my shocks done in the jeep, only problem now is the 2 holes in the cargo area that we had to cut to get the broken volts out, the jackass before me broke 2 of them so I was riding with out the one shock and unfortunately we broke the other 2. But now it's finished other then the wholes we gotta fix, but due to the obnoxiously loud sound coming from the holes and lack if money now I won't be able to make the run tomorrow

throw a blanket down in the back over the holes and come out. a little noise shouldn't ruin your day!
