Hello again, Jeepheads. I bought a Dana 44 today to retrofit into my YJ. It is in rough shape on the outside, and I intend to spend the winter weekends piecing it together. My question is about lug patterns. It came with six lugs. What is the common thought on six lug vs 5x4.5? I may or may not go back to this guy and buy a front D44, based partly on what the popular opinion is on this lug pattern. I assume that there are companies selling 5 lug axles for this thing, that shouldn't be a problem.
What have the rest of you done with lug patterns when doing this swap?
