It was made by Sunray Engineering in Wetherford TX 817 594 9201 StoopidMonkey 02-27-2002, 04:29 PM On this months issue of Petersens 4 wheel. Check out the red willys on the cover. I went to EJS with him last year and he has a Ford 9 front, dana 44 outer, 6 lug. His dad owns a machine shop and he built it himself. Shaker 02-27-2002, 04:35 PM I had a "Currie 9in." front with 6:17's/Detroit....I had Dana 44 outters with 31 spline inner shafts....... It worked great but jumping it 'bent" the housing until I trussed it.......:D :D :p badassjeepguy 02-27-2002, 04:43 PM i got one too..... its 4 sale :D not till end of summer though yjtj 02-27-2002, 05:04 PM the 9 inch centersection is great, but use the d60 outers not the d44 outers. no need to explain why i hope wngrog 02-28-2002, 04:42 AM I just love the clearance that the shaved 9" has. Mine has 12" with my tires at 5lbs and my D60 only has 10" :( welndmn 02-28-2002, 10:09 AM You got any close up's of the shaved 9? i need to shave mine, but have no idea where to start, all i guess, is slap a junk 3rd in there and keep cutting/grinding untill you hit gear wngrog 02-28-2002, 10:58 AM Here is the best shot I have...tell me what kind of angles you need and I will send you some digitals.

He just took a Dana 44 and a early 9" Center Section and made the 2 into one. It has 44 Knuckles and hubs, U-joints and shafts and just uses the center of the Ford. It works very well for how his Flatty is set up. JEEPRZ 02-28-2002, 03:41 PM Originally posted by wngrog I just love the clearance that the shaved 9" has.
