200, just because you have a locker in it. W/out locker around 50-100....

Anything more might as well get ford 44 or wag 44...

yep. You should ask $300, you could get $100 for shafts, $100 for the locker, and $100 for the housing.

I think it should be against the TOS here to sell a d35 regardless of it is has a locker or not. D35's should go in the trash so the tradition of the turd dies with the Jeep it came out of. Sell the locker and shafts out of it and throw the rest away. You'll be doing a service to the rest of the Jeep community.

Seriously Mike, you're on here so much you can't even finish reading sentences from eye redness:D But offtopic you are right, we should ban any D35 parts being sold.

The only true bolt in Dana 44 for your TJ will come from a Rubicon or would have to be custom ordered if you needed something bigger and better (Dynatrac for instance)...

Sure an early Bronco Dana 44 or Scout II (isn't that a passenger side drop?) could be made to work but you would have countless hours in fabricating parts and brackets, changing the bolt pattern, etc.... To "bolt in" said axle into a TJ.... At that point you would be better off going FS axle's F&R....

JMHO

You should swap in a rubicon housing and sell yours...keep the knuckles and brakes..they bolt right on to a D44 Rubicon housing

All the info you need to swap a rubicon D44 (http://www.virtualjeepclub.com/showthread.php?t=30390)

If that's the case get a different 44, have a shop shorten it, you would be better of $$$.

New they retail for $675....You can get a discount or find a good used one for $300-$400 (empty) and build away! I spent $1680 and I took a year to build finding all the great deals etc!

$1,700 is halfway to a D60.

What is wrong with your D30 Terron ? Most guys (ok, TJ guys) upgrade the D30 and then run them until they do D60's or go bankrupt.............:)

PS- Your myspace wedding page is cute, found yourself a looker, good job !
