So I found a guy who will sell me a pair of Dana 44s that he took out of a 1997 Grand Cherokee. They have front and rear disks and have detroit lockers front and rear. He thinks they have chromoly shafts but has to check. Will these bolt up to my cherokee even though they are from a Grand Cherokee? I can get them for $400 for both so it seems like a good deal.

 

rear will not bolt up. somethings fishy...... grand cherokee's only came with a crappy d44al rear axle never a front. whats the front d44 out of? if it is a d44al its not worth the headache. were they stolen? $400 is way way to cheap if they really are d44.....

 

Well its a dad selling them for his son cause his son put them in and then took them out to put Dana 60s in. They have chromoly axles and 4:10 gears. I'm pretty sure they're not stolen

 

whats the front d44 out of?

 

I don't know what its out of but he put it in his cherokee

 

Its probably a ford D44 thats been narrowed and had custom brackets welded up. I'd be really wary of buying them.

 

1st get all you facts straight. you dont even know what axle it is
2nd somethings wrong with them if they are only $400
3rd to put a waggy or ford d44 under and cherokee it takes a good chunk of change. some have thousands into them
4th start asking questions to the owners

once you do this you can ask questions here. your question is to vague to answer

 

X2 Just Chromoly's or gears by themselves for ONE of the axels cost $400. Doesn't count the money needed to pay someone to install them(which 99% of people do)

 

Ok so he said that they came stock out the that Cherokee. His son bought it in Alaska as a special order and they were on it.

 

ONly South American Exports could get a d44 front.. and those are extremely rare. I think I have only actually seen pics of one once The rear axle is very possible front highly unlikely

 

Try to get some pics up.

 

I'm just gonna say it sounds like bull**** and I'd run very very far away from this deal and never look back.

 

It does sound way too good to be true.

 

x3 sounds to fishy and way to good of deal. I think this guy's trying to pull one over on you.

 

Ok, so I'm going to look at them today or tomorrow. What should I look for specifically? What could he try to be pulling over on me? Whats the easiest way to see if they really have lockers?
