Rubicon axle shafts:

Front Reverse Cut 44 : 30 spline inners and 32 spline outers

Rear 44: 32 spline

X, Shara, Sport axle shafts:

Front Reverse Cut 30: 27 spline inners and 32 spline outers

Rear 44 : 30 spline


Any questions, let me know.

Mike



Thanks, Mike! I've been waiting for some verification on all this.

I plan to regear to 4.88's or 5.13's soon w/ your gears. Since I have the 3.21's, I'm sure I'll have to change carriers too. I wonder if I can buy the locker for the Rubi D44 rear and also 32 spline shafts and essentially have a Rubi rear axle. This "should work, right?

Any timeline on Superior axle shafts for the JK?

Thanks.

yeah, good question. what about lockers? i know the gears are different and superior has released 4.88's and 5.13's but are the carriers themselves the same as other D44's? Can I run a D44 ARB?
