Early waggies were 5 lug passenger drop ;)


Looks like an abortion to me.  :thumbs:

Extremely yota looking bearing hubs and solid rotors with dana 44 knuckles.  Too bad you didnt get a clear pic of the diff cover that'd tell a good bit about it aswell.  but from what I can see on the diff cover it could very well be a dana 30.  The knuckles are deffinately jeep as the passenger side has the hole for the drag link built in.  
Full hydro, 186:1 with an auto and 44's what could go wrong??

well, jeep calipers-44 knuckles, yota rotos and hubs?? what an abortion is right

Abortion? would that be like a bunch of different axles merged into a custom wierdo pos? :headscratch:

Exactly.  Some genius cut a dana 44 apart at the center section, slipped those tubes over the tubes on a dana 30 and welded it al together.  Same type of abortion as this.  If you could get a better pic of the diff cover it'd be great..  Hold on, you have a 44 dont you..  Is that diff cover flat on both sides and round both top and bottom?

Beats me...that axle was at PnP today and i was very curious as to what it was.  Yeah I have a 44, but I ain't goin outside to look at it right now  :hammerhead:  I'll letcha know in the AM if you're still curious :thumbs:
