The Dana 44 has a bigger gear set than the Dana 35.
3.73:1
Could be either 3.07 to 1 or 3.73 to 1 Both were an option.
I have a 2001 and it came with a Dana 30 front and a Dana 44 rear Answer No.2 I have a 1998 Jeep Wrangler (TJ) Sahara. Most came out of the factory with a Dana 30 front axle and a Dana 35C rear axle, though an option of upgrading to a Dana 44 rear was available, they are rare. Most have a stock gear ratio of 3.73.
They are so close that it doesn't matter. Most places will call the front ratio in that dana 44 a 3.55 also
I don't remember the suspension changing so it should fit. The only problem you need to worry about is if it is the same ratio you already have, if not your speedometer will be off.
Dana 35 and Dana 44, but not a "standard" Dana 44; it has an aluminum housing and is not compatible with other Dana 44 parts.
Dana 35 or 44Dana 35 or 44
goggle images of dana 44 and dana 35, there are distinctively different in looks, then compare to yours, you will know straight away. The Dana 44 kind of looks like an apple on its side.
depending uopn the year you can do this but be sure to match your gear ratio to the front differential or better yet replace as a set.
Dana 44 or Dana 50 or Dana 60
