Genuine SpicerŽ light duty axle products are manufactured to the same high standards as Original Equipment (OE) parts – because they are OE parts. That means when an automotive axle part is replaced with a genuine Spicer product, it’s being replaced with the original equipment product, ensuring the same performance and reliability you’ve come to expect.
Dana Spicer OE front and rear automotive axle(s) and components are available for automotive applications including heavy duty pick-up trucks, heavy duty vans, SUVs, and motor homes.

Spicer has made parts for several different driveline components over the years and they have a good solid reputation.

Well yea, there is bigger like the Dana (Spicer) 60. The Spicer (Dana) I believe they 2 names for the same company. (anyone, please correct me if I'm wrong). If you have an XJ from what I have read on here and the research I've done. The Dana (Spicer) 44 is more than enough rear axle for just about anything your going to do with your XJ. You also have the Ford 8.8 and 9". They are both good rear ends as well. Both need modification to fit an XJ. The Chrysler company makes the 8.25" which is also common on the XJ's. It's not as strong as the Dana (Spicer) 44, but is a decent rear end. I know I am a noob at Jeep stuff (<--- Blue, Nick n, and you other guys who know way more than me, thanks for teaching me what I know now). Hopefully this helped you out Yag.

Yag is this a trail rig only then? It seems pretty high for a street or multipurpoe rig. A D60/D44 set up would be strong enough to handle even a larger set of tires if the need arises.
This is way overkill on a street or multi use rig though IMO.

Spicer is a formerly stand-alone company that made machines and parts. They were purchased by Dana. The company is now (somewhat unoften) referred to as Dana-Spicer as a result of this merger.
It's sort of like being saying Daimler-Chrysler instead of just Chrysler, etc.
Likewise, older trucks (*****'s in particular) had Timken axles, who are now owned by Rockwell. This is not to be confused with the difference between a "Sterling" and a "Visteon" axle (of the Ford variety).
