Title: Dana 44 front hubs
Post by: Delk on January 14, 2015, 07:50:48 PM

I have an old school narrowed Dana 44 front axle in my TJ. I knew there were some issues so I pulled one side off to find some water and bits in the wheel bearings.

My question is with the large inner hub seal. I have Ford hubs so I can get the 5x5.5 bolt pattern of CJ's. Is the hub seal the same as that used on Jeep Wagoneer and other Jeep Dana 44's? Mine is part number 24917.

I know there are at least two seals Ford and Chevy and they are a little different in size.

I ordered a Wagoneer one from Lighthouse since they are cheap but dont know what to do if its not the right one.

Thanks for that. US automotive dont show them on the website but if the one from Lighthouse are not correct I will give them a call.
