you're running 34's man the JK axles sound sweet, not much building involved though.

if you're going for a ford 3/4 ton front you'll be 8 lug so you're going to have to go with a D60 rear to match. very common swap

 

Decided on 44 up front and 8.8 in the rear, their common here and i have exp. with the d44, thanks for the input guys! if i have any questions i will come back to this thread

The tj rubicon dana 44 is not a true 44 tho,Its a dana 30 with a dana 44 center still has the same weak places the 30 has like the tubes and c's.I would run jk rubicon 44s if i found a set at a good price.But like said the money it cost to swap any axle i would go 1 tons and be done with it.

 

Another option is a waggy Dana 44 front with Isuzu 44 in rear. Both have matching 6 lug pattern

 

The waggy axle you want 80-81 or 85-92 the 82-84 had the crappy cad system but its easy to spot with a vacuum line going to the difff.

 

Hard to get those, not really a fan of tearing an axle out of a waggy either, unless its total junk

 

if u don't take them out of waggies at the junkyard. Either someone else would or the entire vehicle get crushed with all good stuff in it.

 

dont forsee our junkyard getting one, its possible but only slightly. we do have 4 commaches in there though

 

You know we are talking about a fsj jeep wagoneer not a xj wagoneer right ?

 

Yea they are near impossible to find here unless i move west river out into the black hills area i know two guys out there with one but have yet to find one in a junkyard

 

it's a low pinion axle anyway...

 

i will find something i know some guys that build jeeps for a living i can ask them to help me out finding an axle, same guys im buying the old dj mail jeep from

 

What I got sitting in the garage haha. '93 2500 14b, don't worry it has drums behind hubs haha. My next build will be a trail rig that I don't have to worry about driving home after wheeling.

I agree though if you have to ask what axle then you're not ready for wontons.

I just finished my DD build with hp30 and an 8.8, both solid axles for a 33-35". And Fred as well as many others on here do well with even the 8.25 on 35's. I say keep it simple.

 

But a 3/4 ton has a semi float 14 bolt not a full float.
