Alright, I know this has been discussed so many times that people are getting sick of it, but I am going to ask one more time. I have tried the seach, but I guess I dont know how to use it very well.

This is for a 98 XJ, dont really care if its full width or not

What I am looking for are the make model and year of a vehicle and can find Dana 44 front d/s drop with flat top knuckles and either a Ford 9" big bearing or Dana 60 king pin.

thanks and just to show I care :flipoff2:

My question to you is, why would you need a kingpin 60 for the rear of your rig? :rolleyes:

Call me a moron. When I typed it last night I must have been thinking of the front D60. So forgive me my ignorance. I would still like to know the answer to my question thou.:p :D

Not sure why you feel you need a big bearing 9", but for your width vehicle, I think either an '80 and up Wagoneer 44 (low pinion) for a WMS of about 61", and you'd have to source the flat-top knuckles elsewhere. Early Bronco 9" rear for a WMS of about 58.5

If you want wider, Jeep J-trucks newer than '80, or Ford trucks prior to '80, which brings the high pinion into play, if you plan to narrow a Ford truck axle, look at pre '77 front axles as they will be easier to cut down. As for flat tops, some people will drill Ford 1/2 ton knuckles, but they don't look right to me, some Ford 3/4 knuckles are drilled and tapped on the drivers side and flat-top on the passenger side, but they only work with the big dual piston brakes that pretty much rule out 15" wheels without a whole lotta grinding. Chevy / Jeep knuckles and brakes may be the best answer for flat-tops.

Rear axles may or may not be available in a width that you want, but if narrowing is not out of the question, then who cares.

Really you need to decide what width you want before you can decide what vehicles are best to scavenge.
