·Checked on the 79 J10 axles and they are (1) Front - Dana 44-F1 and Rear - Dana 44s with 3.73 difs. Given what I have read they are also 30 spline shafts. The fronts have disk brakes and the rears have shoes. What seems strange is that the front axle tube is larger than the rear tube by say 3/4 inch Outside Cir. Over all the D44 axles are 8-10 inches wider than the CJ and even with 6" Xenon flares they would stick out about 2" wider on each side. So I will move to cut them down. I would like to find out if a Dana 44 from a Wagoneer is essentially the same as the axles shafts from the J10. If so, I would cut the J10 axles down to match the Wagoneer axles - just in case I broke one, I would have to get another one made and could more easily pick up an already made one. So any have information on specifications for axles (shaft& tube lengths, Differential location relative to drive line for fronts and rear, and shapes of axles shafts) for 1985 CJ7s, 1979 J10s, Wagoneers????????????????
