So you all know that i have been on the hunt for a MJ d44 or an Exploder 8.8 to replace my D35 in my MJ...well today my buddy nacho came over to check out my new XJ and pick up some tires i gave him and we started chatting like we always do...talked about the SOA and longarm/shortarm lift for my truck and how i wanted to replace my d35...well he crawled under there and asked y would i wanna switch it out..i said b/c its a d35 duh :nuts: Well he goes thats not a d35 its a D44...i tell him that he is full of $h!t and that he told me it was a 35...well i crawl under my XJ and begin to compare diff covers and sure enough i have always had a factory D44 under the back of my MJ!!!! I have had the MJ for 3yrs now and never new that i already had one...I'm such a retard.... :oops: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockhardzj Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 I'm 99.99999999% positive I've got a turdy five sitting in the @$$ end of my truck. I'll have to verify for the 12000th time tomorrow, if it is a 44, well, I guess I'll just be putting a new seal in it for now... and the 8.25 rear will be up for sale...

Bacon Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Damnit, evertime i look under mine, i still see a D35 there. what kind of magic potion did you use? er wait, 3years huh? ok, so i've had mine for a little over a year now, so maybe if i wait 2 more years, i'll have a D44. lol, i don't know you, so i won't call you an @$$-pirate or anything, but if we were buddies, i'd make fun of you relentlessly. i hope your buddy does. oh, and some guys just have all the luck.....

Tracker Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 In another thread I mentioned a MJ D44 for sale on the Modesto, Ca. craigslist. This guy actually bought a 44 for his TJ and was starting to do the swap when he discovered he already had one. :oops: Just to be safe I think I'll go out and look one more time.
