There is the option of building a Dynatrac Pro 44. Same width, much stronger tubes and Cs. Put in Rubicon stock inards or put in an ARB with Chomos. It would fit without any major modifications and be one of the strongest D44s you could buy. The only downside is they are not a ton cheaper than a D60.

Okay, so let me get this straight... If I want to upgrade to a Rock Jock, I have to spend about $5k on the housing, then spend more money on the yoke, R&P gear set, 35 spline carrier, bearing set up kit, drag link, tie rod and possibly new wheels?
Does that come with a Hemi?

This is a great thread and a question that has been on my mind as well. 35s is all the bigger i will ever be going. I can install a complete axle but any mods to my dana 30 will have to be done by a shop. I want lockers at some point so would it be cheaper to build up the 30 or buy a complete 44 and if so which one for a good price? Also which locker for a true DD? Thanks

good luck finding just a front used front D44...i have been looking for a while. many people believe they are real. i once heard of a man who witnessed bigfoot riding a unicorn carrying a dana 44 on his lap at the end of a rainbow. so my advise is wheel to the end of the rainbow my friend
