is anyone here fluent in a Dana 44AL?

ol' school power

I need to know if anyone here is familiar with the particulars of the aluminum Dana 44 used in the later model V-8 Jeeps.
I do know there's several differences from a normal Dana, but I'd like to pick up one of these covers knowing it'll fit.

Thanks

El' No The aluminum dana 44 ceneter section used in Grand cherokee has a wider cover than the std dana 44 by over 1"

Well sheeite. The one that could use a girdle is too fat to slip it on. Thanks

Well that sure is a pretty cover too...I feel your pain brother :(:

Thought it was worth a shot since it sounds like I have to go inside to deal with a couple carrier bearings.

He may have the same diff, but not the same powerplant.

Gas guzzler?
Huh!

WIth the Mopar Perf controller, Mopar Perf fresh air intake and an ASP 25% underdrive crank pulley, my last road trip netted 17.87 MPG.
I had to go out on a company run, so 210 miles of highway running 75 with the cruise on. :lo1l:
Guess the 5.9 Magnum with 3.73's ain't such a pig as many think.

Not bad Ron not bad... With the 318 stock and mostly everything stock at 70 mph no wind with the cruise control on I get 19-20 mpg :shock: This thing with a V8 gets better than any six cylinder I have ever had 111!!!
