I didn't know that. Don't know too much about them. I have had this jeep for a while, and just now got into upgrading it.

cherokee dana 44 and 29 spline 8.25 are the only "quick" bolt on upgrades
if your jeep is a 1987 with vacuum disconnect, a non disco hp D30 is also a bolt on upgade

x2 on the cherokee d44 nd the chryco 8.25 those are the only quick swap axles for the rear, save up nd go for a ford 8.8 in stock form they're as strong if not stronger then a d44 rear

X3 on the 44 or 29 spline 8.25 in the rear. On the front, keep the HP30 in the front, convert to chromo shaft's if ya start breaking the stock ones. With that setup you'll be safe for run up to 35's IMO.
