Re: 93 YJ Axle Question

Jerry's got a point. I installed a standard D60 a few years ago, right before all these custom-center section 60's came on the market. It lost me a great deal of clearance at the pumpkin, however it'll take something extraordinary to break it.

IMHO, if you plan to stay with the I6 forever, the D44 or 9" is probably strong enough for anything you can throw at it....but, it's always nice to have some reserve!
