I have the chance to get a used Dana 44 rear axle for my 1976 jeep CJ5 at a bargain price. The doner vehicle is a 1975 jeep CJ5. Without getting into details, Is this a direct swap for my model 20 rear axle ?? If so i'd like to bench this one, go through it completely and swap in a soft locker.
As Always, THANKS A TON for any help !!!!

Yep it's a bolt in. You'll just need to move the spring perches as your springs are farther apart than the '75. Are the gears the same as your front or would you make them match with the rebuild?
