Dana 44 full float

leeadam94 · Jun 10, 2016

Stock never would work so I ordered some custom cut Yukon cromo shafts

This is the first set that broke

And the second set

So in the mean time I made a full float kit

RCV custom shafts for the win and hopefully it will hold together now.

Looks good
Can you post info on your rig? Looks a lot of fun to wheel.

Why not just run a stock 8.8 / c-clip elim'd 8.8?

It looks like you're running sticky 39's and have alota money in your rig.....why bother with band aiding the D44 when 9"'s are so readily available, if you want to run lightweight 1/2 ton stuff that is.

This whole jeep has been step by step upgrading and so since the rear end has the truss and links already there I just keep Up grading. Plus it's offset to one side also And yes one tons would be cheaper

Re:

I hate how rcv doesn't relieve the diameter of their double splined shafts.

I wonder if you could order them "made correctly"

leeadam94 · Jun 10, 2016

I bored my rear spindles out for better clearance but I have seen people turn the axle down also

I'm curious why you went with locking hubs and not drive flanges on the rear?

leeadam94 · Jun 12, 2016

Ha Kush got my dying from laughter!!!! But yes having avoid axle design is better a droves to be stronger but having said that 300m RCV I was told by Paul at RCV WOULD NOT BREAK. Period no breaking these baby shaft

Drive slugs r a good idea went with lockouts for a couple reasons. First if I break something in the rear end just a finger turn an roll back to the truck. And looks weird with lockouts on all 4 corners

Plus w lockouts you have the option of the most inconvenient front digs ever lol

Haters gonna hate but I'm doing front and rear steering 44's on my zuk buggy if I ever get time to build it.

More clearance and less weight than tons IF they don't break.
