I would have had the non disco front axle then, from the factory in 1987, with a D44 rear...

Not too many of those around.

Lmao. My Jeep is an 85, was stolen, stripped, rebuilt and retitled as an 87 cause that's what the donor was. I got a D44 rear, non disco D30 and AMC242. So maybe that "rare" one was my donor?

Not the Cherokees. They were all D30s.

Depends on what rear you get.

That one would be full width.

I thought so. I like the width of the stock Cherokee axles. Are waggy axles worth the swap in?
