Default ARB differential cover


i found this arb differential cover on auto anything.
they have it available for the dana 30-35-44-50-60 axles.
i am not to good with axles.
is our durangos equipted with any of these axles.
obviously our front axle is not a soild axle but is it any of the above types.
and my rear axle is the 9.25 12 bolt. which type of axle is that one?
sorry not to sound stupid, just not good with the axles.

Correct. Corporate rear axles with an aluminum Dana 35 front pumpkin.

what is the rear axle? i know its a corporate, but i thought it was a dana series though? cuz that would be awesome to get both front and rear arb diff covers. those things are bad mama jamas.
i watch a video on em and they are hard to destroy. there made for rock crawlers that slam into boulders all the time.
they were slamming on it with a 20lb sledge and all it was doing was chipping it and making small dent and dings.
our stock steel cover only took a few blows with the sledge befor it was destroyed!

Rear is a Chrysler corporator axle. Nothing Dana about it

Are you sure it will clear steering? With tuff country lift they drill a hole above stock to access fill. The clearance is tight with the 98-99 steering. The rack might be different.

the 98 and 99 had a dana front iirc, im not sure which one

none of them had a dana branded rear, however i believe that dana did make the corporate axle for chrysler, to chrysler specs, NOT to dana specs, so the bolt holes may or may not line up for the cover.

oh. its probably best that i call and check to make sure that they will fit. no sense in buying something that wont fit or have enough access room for other components to clear.
