... Sorry to hear of the problem but welcome the group!

The D-44’s are not the same quality as the D-44 in my old ‘76 Wagoneer. I have a ‘99 Grand Cherokee and the D-44 in it is a piece of crap so I’m saying “They don’t build them like they used to”.

Maybe some others have better info and will post-up on the thread.

Have a good one and CUL.. Don S..

My Jeep Rubicon had Dana 44s front and rear...

 Seemed to be very strong, especially spinning those HEAVY MT/Rs from Goodyear.
