Notes

Outer Knuckle Assemblies: The Currie 44 is designed to reuse the complete stock TJ/TJ/XJ outer knuckle assemblies from the ball joints out (knuckles, hubs, disk brake calipers and rotors)

Differential Carriers: The center section is designed to use standard Dana 44 cariers (ARB RD117 or Eaton Elocker 19977-010).

Overall Width: Axle width is 60.250 inches (stock TJ width) between wheel mounting surfaces

Tire Size: Recommended maximum 37-inch tire size due to the inherent limitations of the stock brakes, wheel bearings, and axle u-joints. Tires larger than 31-inches may require vehicle modification for proper clearance.
