Do the rear Dana 44's in the older jeeps have any difference? did they upgrade or make any changes for 87 to 90?

dont quote me on this but im pretty sure they're all the same, unless you get a d44a, which never came on xjs....

Yeah the D44a is a GC D44, i'm starting a build and it is gonna be pure bred XJ the reason i ask is because i can get my hands on an 87 D44 right now but if they were improved later i'll just wait and get a later model one

if you can get it for cheap get it now, they usually go pretty fast. how much is it?

i have only ever seen them i 87 model years. i've found 6 in total and they were all from an 87, cherokee or comanche.

i check all mj's and every xj from 84 to 94 in the wreckers.

i pulled 2 in one day one from 87 and one from 89 and the only difference was the ribbing on the diff housing was a little different but no different in any other way i would definitely pull it if thats what you want

xj_maniac_newb

for $200 i would definitely get it. If nothing else you can clean it, paint it, and sell it for around $400-$500 EASY. You could even sell it for that without cleaning it up as long as its in ok condition

My 90 MJ has a 44 from the factory.
