Fsj grand waggy d44 gears?

[JeepcoMJ]

I lucked out the other day...a family friend owns a scrap yard and got a '91 grand wagoneer in...360, auto, 4x4 with d44's/driver's drop axle.

 

he gave me the axles and turbines off of it for getting a jaguar xj6 sold for him for much more than the scrap price he was gonna be getting...

 

 

 

I don't know the difference in track width (are they wider, narrower, etc. than MJ/xj track width?) but they are 6 bolt. disc front drum rear, obviously leaf sprung so I'll have to build mounts to go with longarms.

 

 

I also need to know what gears a '91 waggy equipped with factory tow package would have as well...tags are rusted off :-/ and I won't have time to mess with them for a few months...

 

Thanks,

don't know the gears, but to my knowledge they are just a tad wider.

Nice Score!

[JeepcoMJ]

thanks.

 

this also means I'll need new cragar soft 8's...8 of them :-/

I don't know the difference in track width (are they wider, narrower, etc. than MJ/xj track width?) but they are 5x4.5. disc front drum rear, obviously leaf sprung so I'll have to build mounts to go with longarms.

They are WHAT?

 

Grand Wagoneers had 6-bolt wheels, whatever the standard Chevy pattern was. Was it 6x5 or 6x5-1/2?

yes, sorry eagle. I'm not feeling great today and meant to type 6 bolt but was thinking about how I'll have to replace my rims with 6 bolt...stupid me lol.

they'll be 6 on 5.5" and they will very likely have an insanely crappy gear ratio. The front matches up nicely with a rear 44 from a v6 95-ish Rodeo/Passport (which will have 4.10s or better and disk brakes).

I have one in the front of my comanche, the tnt kit is better than the rubicon kit (in case you wanted to know)

 

I also put a 9" in the rear of my comanche it is out of a 79 Bronco. I had 35x15.5 sx swampers on it but am going to 36x12.5 tsl swampers to make it a little narrower, I was also having problems getting traction (not enough weight for the wide swampers to dig in)

 

anyway any pics I have are on photobucket, search bpm4x4 :popcorn:

tow package gears would be 3.31's.

tow package gears would be 3.31's.

Non tow package gear ratio was 2.72 :nuts: or some crazy @$$ number like that.
