i would say it'd have an arb too but it probably won't!, so i won't

nope, ignore me, I'm just playing the fool, as 'I clearly don't know what I'm talking about' Might get curated again....

You were being helpful, don't be confuzzled

MOCAJ · « **Reply #107 on:** February 08, 2012, 07:47:10 PM »

the problem is that i dont know what you got, 44 rear with arb got that, but didnt know about shafts etc

my point was stock 20 is stronger than stock 44 but then you go off on one etc

you are looking at alsorts of possibilities on 2 threads, it aint easy to follow tbh and there are guys on here with loads of goood info and experience

so what axles you moving up to

?

Dutch · « **Reply #110 on:** February 08, 2012, 08:21:45 PM »

Me ? ...... not moving up to anything. Just hope that what I've got stays in one piece.

To quote JP mag.........oh feck here we go again.......

They observed that an AMC Corp 20 had stronger looking ring gear than a Dana 44........ but 2 piece shafts and tubes that spun.....and were weak

They re-did the shafts with High zoot 1 piece jobbies and retubed with seriously thick wall tube and fitted chev discs.....

could only go to 4.88 ratio cos that's the limitation of a 20...........

Great ....wonderful.........muppet proof. but it weighed in at the same as a Dana 60 and had cost then lots of $$$$$$$$$$$$

I guess proving tis better to grasp the nettle in the beginning

MOCAJ · « **Reply #112 on:** February 08, 2012, 08:26:54 PM »

The crown wheel might be bigger and stronger in the 20, but that's about all. The tubes, wheel bearings, half shafts are all bigger on the waggoneer 44 in the back of my 7. Also get better clearance under the diff.
