You are paying that much for a dana 60 with 30 spline shaft's and a limited slip? :bs)  I wouldnt pay 100 for it.

Alex, you would pay a $100 for it in a second and weld the shafts and spiders together!  {nln}

They're not 30 spline shafts. Mine are 32 with the D44, but you are right about the price. It's too much. You can get a Currie Dana 60 with the diff turned up and ARB lockers for the same price by the time you add lockers and gears to that thing. That is unless you plan on running 4.10 gears with a Dana 60 which I'm sure not too many people will.

Only a limited slip and its a c-clip axle too? What a waste.

Ok, so I have to ask... what's wrong with the 44's!? I WISH I had 44's under mine. :'(

Well, a Rubbi 44 aint much more than a 30.

There's nothing "wrong" with a 44, but for a little more, you get a lot more.  A Dana 60 is said to be twice as strong as a 44, ring gear, shafts, tubes, especially the knuckles, everything is bigger, stronger.  Here say, so I'll be doing a little research.

Check out this list of axles, weakest to strongest:

If it's that wheelin' warriors guy or what not, they are the Dynatracs. This guy had em at River Rock too...

The JK Dana 44 is not the same as the TJ Dana 44. The Rubi D44 has 32 spline shafts, a larger ring and pinion, 1350 u-joints, and stronger housing. There's nothing wrong with the axle at all, unless you want to run 40's. Even then you would probably be OK with a light skinny peddle.

Well, I know when or if I break my 35/30 combo I am going to the 44's. I will by the superior evolution series upgrade spline axles and go to a 35" tire and be DONE! If I break a 44 on 35's with a heavier spline count I must be doin somethin wrong.
