Default Front Axle

Ok. I have an unlimited X so I have the gay D30 up front and a 44 in the rear stock. I am going to lift it 6 inches with the Teraflex long arm kit and run 37's. My question is that I plan on getting a pro rock 44'front axle , can I use my 30 inner parts for the pr44 or do I have to buy all new shit for the axle? I also plan on getting the Teraflex big breaks for the front.

you will have to buy a 44 carrier, R&P, axle shafts.
Why are you looking to go with the 6" lift to run 37's? The 4" will be plenty, but if you want to go with the 6" go for it!

Here is Joe from TeraFlex. He has 37's with the 4" LA. https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/albu...chmentid=60055

as mentioned, with the exception of knuckles and brakes, you will need to get everything else.

The lowest priced option will have a Detroit or ARB, 30 spline alloy inner shafts, factory ball joints, and gearing of your choice.

You will re-use the stock 32 spline outers, knuckles, brakes.

I would also suggest getting the unlimited housing, as opposed to the regular one...

D30s are attracted to other D30s?

I was not aware that an unlimited housing is any different than that of a 2 door

it's not - the "unlimited" is just a name that dynatrac gave to their heavy duty pro rock 44
