I own a 90 jeep Cherokee 4.0 l! What's the best but cheap way for axles? I want heavy duty axles that still bolt right up! Any suggestions??

 

Dana 44 rear, or if u Dave a dana 35, u can get a chrysler 8.25

 

No such thing as a cheap bolt in. You can get aftermarket axles but they are way pricey. Only bolt in factory front axles are the D30 and Rubi D44/30 hybrid. As for rears stock width you have stock XJ axles. The 70s Ford 9" and D60 will bolt in with bigger u bolts and spring plates, stock perches are less than 1/2" wider. These are full width and you'd need a matching front.

 

How about the front?

 

Bolt-IN = Currie, Dynatrack ect...... Which are $$$$$

Get some Truss, and Sleeve the D30 , Regear, Full Case locker, Get HD control arm Mounts, Reid Racing D44 Knuckle conversion, Highsteer, Chromoly Shafts IT'll be a Killer D30 !

Get a 8.25 or D44, Truss them Chromoly axles, Regear with a full case locker

It's not cheap to build a Strong Axle

 

Find one that fits the tire size you plan on running and then get a rear that works with it since rears are much cheaper and easier to find. Then either build brackets or buy them or a truss for the front and get to welding.

 

Thats what I planned! Thanks guys! I plan on getting some axles off a Dodge 4×4 truck and start building brackets! Lucky this is a backyard build and not my daily driving jeep

 

Most Dodge front axles, 1/2 ton and ton, have a CAD, junk unit bearings and are low pinion. There are much better choices out there.

 

Such as? I'm open to any suggestions? Would it be ideal to run stock axles just beef them up?

 

Ford HP d44 or a d60. Hell, you can make a 14 bolt a steering axle if you want. I'd take a d30 over a dodge front axle any day

Really depends on how you plan on using it and tire size.

 

Hudlow Axle built my drive shaft and has built a few others for me. Great guys and I'm about 30 minutes from their shop. Look them up, they have a monster truck, tank and rat rod bug with a busa motor in it they built.
