Axle Assemblies

Front and Rear axle assemblies are now available. 19-spline front and rear, which isn't great, but they should be able to be converted to 30-spline once they get in some builder's hands.

Front is $1070 and rear is $1000. Getting clarification if all of the braking hardware is included because the front calipers are $130 each.

The spindle bolt pattern is the evenly spaced 6-bolt so the GeoTracker brake conversion may work for a fraction of the price.

Spring to spring is 27.5" and WMS is 53.25"

Springs are 2.5" wide, 36" in the front and 48" in the rear.

Not a bad way to get a Dana 44 up front without going Wagoneer.

 

For guys doing YJ spring mods these might be great as-is. You’d wanna regear em if you had a FHead.

I think the front specifically will be a hot ticket item.

 

I think a new 19 spline 44 would hold up to any stock CJ power. The almost direct bolt in part is the real benefit to most.

 

I'm waiting on the price of the oxlocker to come down. Because it is a direct fit.

 

I was at the dealer today and one of the first things I noticed was that disc brake 44....looked very close to a CJ axle!

 

I think this front is gonna be a hot ticket swap item.

 

Has anyone confirmed if this will work I’d be very interested in the front disk brakes?

 

I haven't seen anyone use one yet.

To the OP, OnTheRoxFab has RCV 30 spline axles and a couple people have full float 30 spline kits already.

 

You mean a rear full float? Or is that a reference to the front? Guess I missed something. Have been through a lot of info today haha

 

Full float rear kits. I’m pretty sure most fronts are already full float.

 

That’s what I thought too. Thanks for clarifying. Do you know if the front axle will work on our jeeps or is it just close?

 

I'll have to get some closer measurements this week.

 

That would be awesome if you could. I’m actually thinking of just getting some of these parts to see how well the work. Would be cool to have a open knuckle 44 up front.

 

Both my Roxor and '57 seem about 28" (prolly give/take a half inch) spring center to center. I'm not seeing much to stop this swap besides gearing.

 

That makes me feel a lot better bout this, gearing can be fixed since it’s a Dana 44

 

Hmmmm, what to do? I will have to go to the local dealer and price it all out. Maybe, easier then swapping axles from my 71 to my 69. Also, going to compare prices with Currie...

 

Right at 1100 for the front. And they make 30 spline shafts for them as well, that opens up locker choices.

I’m wondering if germs 30spline full float kit will work on the rear. Buy the set and the master cyl/pedal set up that we know fits and you have a ready made axle and brake upgrade kit. I’m looking into this as well as if a terra low and overdrive can be made to fit their version of a Dana 18. If you could get terra low on there you could almost keep the 373d and still wheel it. Just thinking out loud thinking of buy some parts to see what I can do.

 

Can anyone confirm what comes with thefront axle for $1100, does it include brakes? Also a part number if anyone has it for the front axle. Will an eaton e locker work if you change to a 30 spline axle kit?

Thanks

Mike

 

ELocker will work from a ordinary D44. Call OnTheRox. They know/have the spacer depth you need to use.

From the picture it looks like it has everything but the calipers and pads: 0503AAA00610N

 

What jrobz23 said and I have confirmed that’s what my dealer will sell it for.
Any locker for a 30 spline will work if you change shafts
