Since that is only a 1500, I hope he changed axles out to D60's or D70's. 44's are WAY to much for stock 1500 axles, escpecially the D44 in the front.

doesn't say anything about an axle swap so i doubt he did. but they don't list a lot of mods other than the lift and i can see the exaust and all the other exterior stuff that isn't listed. they very well might have done the swap but i really really doubt it.

way too much...

there was not axle swap.

that's still the stock set up of the corp 9.25 and the D44 up front. it's the cover that tells the difference between the 60 and 44. that is a 44.

I agree, its easy to see the 9.25 in the rear, but hard to tell if thats a D44 up there. I guarentee it is. Somebody with a truck like that most likely didn't do any of the work themselfs. He probably too it to a shop and had them do everything and knows nothing about the truck. Look at that front driveshaft angle [sm=jawdrop.gif]

Its a pavement pounder for sure.

The Dana 44 and the Dana 60 actually have the same cover. The Dana 60's cover is just slightly larger

That's a 44 though...the axle tube is too small. Also, he'd have to have 2 5lug rims and 2 8lug rims. [&:]

It's definitely a pavement pounder. I bet those 44s have never seen mud...they probably haven't even been off the blacktop [&:]

Hopefully it's at least re-geared...especially with that torque "friendly" exhaust system [:'(]
