I have a 13 jku and looking at upgrading my front axle to a Dana 44. What other vehicles have the same width axles as the jku? Looking to do an axle swap on a budget.

You are not going to find a 44 that is not made for the jeep JK that has the same bolt pattern, has the tone rings, and has the same WMS unless it is a Rubi axle. They are out there if you just wait. You can also buy them new from Mopar for a pretty decent price. Most just go with a ford dana 60 but it will have a different bolt pattern and WMS

Just to save someone else some time:

Does anyone know the specs on this? It says thicker tubes, but how much thicker? And I assume the C's are the same.
