Product Description

The Revolution Gear & Axle DC-D44-TJ-2 rear axle kit is engineered for the 1987-2006 Jeep Wrangler TJ and Unlimited LJ models equipped with the factory Dana 44 rear axle and drum-brake configuration. Built from strong 4140 chromoly steel, this kit provides a much-improved strength foundation for off-road, lifted, or heavy-tire builds where standard axles may not suffice.

Installation is simplified with pre-installed bearings, seals, and retainers, and support for two common wheel-bolt patterns enhances compatibility. The 10-year limited warranty offers long-term reliability for serious Jeep enthusiasts. Fitment accounts for drum-brake versions only - be sure your vehicle uses drum brakes on the Dana 44 rear housing before ordering.

Fitment covers 1987-2006 Jeep Wrangler TJ/LJ models with the Dana 44 rear axle and drum-brake setup; compatibility for model years beyond 2006 is currently unconfirmed. Before purchase, verify your axle housing, brake type and any wheel-bolt pattern requirements. This is a high-quality axle upgrade for lifted Jeeps and demanding use.
