They never made a low pinion yj Dana 30. All yjs and xjs use high pinion with the exception of 00&01 Cherokees, they were lp. They also use 760 u joints for the shafts which are similar in size to a 1310 but aren't the same. 1310 is a driveshaft u joint with the outside clips.
Ok, just looked it up... I was wrong for sure. The 786 is the the same as the 1310 or the 297. So the axle shafts on the JK are stronger. But the ring and pinion are the same size in terms of dimensions.

You forgot one :
People who go on and on and think they know everything because they read it on the forums or heard it from a friends, friends, sisters, brother in law.
Have you actually seen a bent D30 or D44 housing yourself? Or a bent C?
I have seen 2 D30 that were in accidents that took direct hits to a front wheel and that didn't bend them just broke brackets. I have seen only one bent D30 in a Jeep that had been jumped repeated ..

Plus the year of the jeep as well as if it's a 2dr or 4dr and if it's an Automatic or Manual. Just also think about that before answering or at least give a full run down of what you sit on before saying anything.
