Ok, so I know the D44 came on earlier XJ's that were equipped with the tow package.

My questions are... What ratio were/are the Gears?
Wasnt it 3.73 atleast?

Or, if you have the Jeep the axle came on, PM me the last 9 digits from the VIN and i will tell you. Probably 3.73 though.

Straight from Chrysler's system. 3.42 ratio from factory

 

3.42?? wow, that sucks for towing. i like the 90s ratio of 3.73 better

 

Well now...
I woke up today, a bit frustrated that I have to take apart two front ends and swap both R&P's. And as I start to disassemble the first one (donor Jeep) I notice the gear ratio tag, that had been hidden, completely covered and unnoticeable, from oil & dirt....heh, no wonder why I never saw it...

...Anyways GR is 3.54....making things ALOT simpler since my GR is 3.55 already Very Nice!

Not too mention, come Monday, Im ordering both Lockrites.

 

nice

 

Indeed!

Thanks for your help guys!
Next time, I'll make sure to REALLY check, first lol
