I Am interested in upgrading my axel to a 8.8 with 4.10 gears from eastcoastgearsupply.com what options should I get to make my Cherokee be the best it possibly could and I was looking at the dana 44 for the front would it matter if I went with that or keep my Dana 30 please help me to make a decision on what would be the best money is not a concern just want my Cherokee to be prime all the time

 

If moneys isn't a concern....14 bolt rear, D60 front. Done. Or waggy 44s.

All kidding aside, unless you're gonna run 35s or larger and aren't planning on going full width axles, the d30 should be fine.

Of course since you don't have your rig info filled out below your avatar and haven't given us your year, I don't know if it's a high pinion or low pinion d30. If it's a 97 and up. You have a low pinion d30. Swap it for a high pinion d30 from an older model for more clearance.

 

prime all the time? money no object? spider9s with tru hi9 centers with 40 spline arbs, 3 link front, double triangulated 4 link rear, 2.5 king pure race c/os all around with some 3.0 bypasses helping them out. slap a set of creepies or treps on there in a 39.5" flavor and call it good.

theres like 2-3 axle swap threads a week. read them. and set a realistic budget.

 

me and you think a lot alike lol, that would be my ultimate dream axle set, but im guna settle with the kingpin ford D60 and 14b ff

 

97 still has the high pin d30. Solomon7 I think it changed for 2000.
low p on the left high on the right.

 

I dont even know what all that means...but thats what I want for my next build! Lol

 

translation: thats bout $10-20000 in stuff right there

 

Uh, nvrmd! I'm gonna have to stick with D60's

 

its easy to do it cheap. my buddy had 37s on 60s on a XJ and had about $3000 into the whole jeep... including buying the truck. sure, the diffs were welded, the 37s were almost shot, and the suspension was a shot old bastard pack, unknown coils, and random shocks... but it worked good for what it was.

 

I have a 96 and sorry I use the mobile app and you cant fill out the info thanks for the help though

 

This thread is awesome....

"Money is not a concern" yet you dont go to a large, professional, dedicated 4wd shop, you go to an internet forum. And you start with an 8.8 rear?

This will turn out successfully.

Moved to Chat.

 

i reccomend these:

 

Oh man, those cost some serious dough...

 

 

Dude, thank you!

I just assumed I had a low pinion D30, I'm really new to this and didn't really know how to check. That picture helped me realize that I actually have a high pinion D30, which is awesome. I could still be mistaken but I don't think so. I just keep learning new and awesome things about my Jeep lol

It's a 99.
