Re: axle swap question

If back roads and sand is all your are planning, then I would stick with the Dana 44. If you are planning on some hard core rock crawling or mud bogging, with a lot of HP and torque going through those axles, then I would consider a Dana 60. I would think for a strong rebuild it will probably run in you about $1500, unless you already have a locker.
