I think he was saying the 2 Mopar axles are $2800.

 

Yeah, I spent a great deal of time looking for a custom D44 front. I even had one actually ordered before they called back and said they couldn't do it. ARB, OX... no one has a workable selectable locker for a front 44. As close as I could come to custom was a Mopar D44 with Evolution axles.

 

That's what I was saying. I said in the ball park for the price of the 2 Mopar axles he could build a custom axle. If you go the 4wd, you will see that they are no longer listing the JK Mopar axles.

If you go to http://www.northridge4x4.com/proddet...4-FRONT&cat=38

You will see that you can build a custom front JK D44 axle for under $2800 that has alloy axles, ARB lockers and gear ratio of choice.

It is also possible to find a vendor that builds Solid custom axles for the JK.

 

Is this a bolt-in for the JK?

 

That axle doesn't include the suspension mounts or the abs tone rings for the jk. THose were meant for 06 and earlier applications.

 

no its not.

 

ok find the vendor.

I found it

 

It is not a "nightmare" in the rear, but it does change the characteristics and handling. I had one in the rear of my TJ, and did not like it, but I would not classify it as a nightmare. I would consider it for the JK Unlimited with the much longer wheelbase...

for what it is worth, the stock limited slip with traction control, along with a front lunchbox locker is amazing in it's capabilities. And I do mean amazing...

Here is the rear: http://www.4wd.com/productdetails.as...4&partID=15587

My point was that I don't think 2800 is not the ideal way to make a JK X have the front and rear have 4.1 ratio unless it came with a D35 rear. Many people will then want to upgrade the axle shafts on top of that and regear to lower than 4.1 gearing anyway.
