95whitetrash Posted February 18, 2009 Posted February 18, 2009 Okay, we all know that the D-44 or the 8.8 ford explorer axle's are great mods But which axle do you all recommend for a good FRONT axle upgrade? :idea: :wall: :dunno: :wall: :idea: Sorry, new guy here. I have a 95 Grand Cherokee and am looking to lift it so this friend of mine say's he has a 86 COMANCHE in his back yard that he will (almost) give me. he says it needs a clutch and he was just to lazy to put one in so he parked it it has the V-6 with a standard trans (don't know if it has a 4 speed or 5 speed) if i can get this and get it running I will have a cool toy and not have to make the grand grow until I can get all the parts together Great site by the way, I have already acquired tons of ( useless ) info and don't even have the MJ yet :dunno: :wavey: :dunno:
offroader461 Posted February 18, 2009 Posted February 18, 2009 D30's are a good front axle...they can handle 35's with no problem...just upgrade the u-joints in the front to the bigger ones and call it good :cheers:

The D30 is a much better axle than a lot of people give it credit for.
