  • Dana Question

    i was driving around the other day and found a comanche sitting in a driveway, it looked like it had been their for a while. the bed had rot on the whole passenger side and all the wear & tear. my question is if the dana 44 out of that comanche would fit in the rear of my cherokee?

      to weld new brackets onto the housing is it really that difficult if you have the know-how and have the proper tools. i know the big thing is the pinion angle must be matched up.

          lol.... mj's are SUA, xj's are SOA.... like mentioned above, it's not that hard to reweld the perches on top with the proper know how...

              If you are a good welder, it's pretty simple.

                this. MJ perches are also a bit wider than XJ perches.

                          well the owner of the comanche said he would sell the truck to me for a couple hundred bucks but then i got a call today and found that he will be keeping the thing rot away in his driveway.
