Dana 44 woes

Thanks for reply. I did some research and saw that Dana 44's (when I cross reference the model # on axle) comes up as an 'AMC 44'. That the same thing? Rear diff cover looks Dana 44 specific. 19080 CJ's didn't come w/ 44's? Still think I'm going to have to rebuild. Chance of finding that axle & gear ratio in junkyard somewhat close to me is slim to nil.
I think the Dana 44 was only in mid year 86 CJ's if I remember correctly. I have a Dana 44 in my 1981 CJ but it came out of a Scout

I wouldn't try and swap the axle. I'd find a good axle guy and get it fixed. You might not need to rebuild the entire axle.
