-Oh no I picked a side-
a t90 is 9" long and a sm420 is almost 14" long. Plus the rig has a HP 44 in the rear so driveshafts shouldn't be a huge issue...

Okay then, I'll rephrase.
A D44 Hi Pinion in the rear of a wheeling rig is about as smart as building a toyota into a truggy.
It's about as smart as camping with Karl
It's about as smart as loaning Robin's trailer.
It's about as smart.... well, you get the picture.

In my lowly opinion. Just my opinion. Doesn't count for much
A D44 is juuuusst big enough to go wheeling. It's equivalent to a AMC 20 in ring gear strength. Maybe equivalent to an 8.8.
Now, let's run it on the weak side of the tooth. That's going to make it as strong as.... say a Dana 35.
Which as we all know, is NOT strong enough. And yeah they make Super 35 kits and all that crap. But if you're going to polish a turd, at least make the turd a D60.

The guy who built the axles is one of the best around with D44s. It's no D60 but there's always a trade off some where for something. This is such a light rig and it's only got about 200HP on a great day. We're not talking my 4runner at over 600 lbs and 400+Hp with dual t-cases. That would blow apart this R&P but this is still WAY stronger than what WAS in there.
Can it all mate up though?
The floor already needs to be redone somewhat since we're going to take out the overdrive.

A high pinion 44 in a rear application is stronger than the rear 44 it came with? :eeek:
Get 60s or go home! :fawkdancesmiley: :haha:
No it didn't come with a Dana 44, it came with a Dana 22 I believe. Just tiny little things. About the right size for a go-cart...

Trail rig....???
I agree with Gibby here a V-6 flatty should have a total weight of no more than 3200 lbs if you want it to work. If it iis more than that put it on a diet, I would image your talkin about that lake tapps turtle guy.. If you are, that guy has more jeep building experiance than all of us added together... enough said...If it were me and I was building a fun trail rig I would be puting a t-176 or t-177 four speed and dana 20 with low gear kit....and the CV drive shaft would fix any driveline issues. My old flatfender had a V-8, T-15 three speed, and a dana 20 normal dana 44. the drive line angle was steep. But it would still run down the highway at 70mph without a vibbbb...I just replaces the u-joints once a season just to be safe.
As for the Dana 18 t-case... If they are built right the will take alot of abuse and HP, I was running an amc 401 in front of mine in my old wrangler..

Oh, the love of a flatfender..
It should have came with a dana 41 tappered axle. and either a dana 25 or 27 front axle.
