WJ D35 To D44a swap

[libtech08]

I really want to get rid of my d35. I am interested in going to the dana 44 a which i believe would be a direct bolt in except for the driveshaft. Im not worried about the gears because I have the Np242. I would get the But im curious about the drive shaft. Not sure if you guys would have any pointers. The wj only comes in 3.73 gears and 3.55 gears and Im not sure what i am but Since i got my 32' tires i rather just get the 3.73 and then just only use full time 4WD.
Thanks

The 4.0 has 3.55 and the 4.7 has the 3.73,drive shaft will be the only issue other than that its a direct bolt in.

I Think Simce I have about 4.5 inches of lift I might be alright but I think that at the worst I will have my stock driveshaft cut and ballenced
Thanks
