Hey Brian - I got the 44. My goal is to get it on the Jeep within the next 2 months... The gears all look fine what I can tell, no chipped/worn teeth. The brake conversion is not exactly what I had expected though. The disp capilars are mounted on there. However the rotors are hung over the old drum brakes. They are just sitting on the lug bolts and held snug by an old set of worn drums. Does this sound fishy? Otherewsie the axle looks straight from what I can see. Only one scar on the back diff cover - not big enough to have done any damege to the gears inside.
While I have the axle off, what are some things I can do to overhaul the axle without needing special tools. Or should I just clean the diff housinig, bolt it back together, and fill it - and wait till I re-gear both axles to go through it completely.
Do you know if my current rear drum ABS sensors will work with this conversions. The disk brakes were from a 98 Grand D35. If not, I will need to disconnect the dash bulb to pass inspection.
I have a feeling that when I go to connect these 2 brake systems, I may have a few more questions.
Thanks.
