This is the most comprehensive Do It Yourself How to Jeep Wrangler JK front Spicer Ultimate Dana 44 axle installation video on the entire internet!
So buckle up for a longer video but that’s because it has lots of data.
I’ll cover the basics on why I chose the Ultimate Dana44 for the front of the AutoEdits Jeep.

Then I’ll go through some of the other components like the Reid Racing knuckles… https://reidracing.biz/jk001
Plus, there’s a pretty good side by side comparison for those who think the stock Rubicon Dana 44 axle and the Ultimate 44 are exactly the same… because there are some very important differences exactly where I need them!
After that, it’s install time and I’ll take a few minutes to explain how to measure and get your axle and suspension setup dialed.
I even show the hard parts of doing a big upgrade to your rig and how to push through… removing broken bolts… dealing with the dreaded death wobble after getting a professional alignment and doing an eyeball alignment in the garage and taking it for a drive.
Here is a good resource for torque specs… there are plenty of other spots but this is a good start: https://www.extremeterrain.com/jeep-wrangler-torque-specs.html
Thanks so much for watching!

Why no steering stabilizer?
Not gonna front this video was dope compared to a bunch of people who just talk about what to do instead of showing like you did . I have a Dana 30 I want to swap to 44 as well . My question is if I swap the front to 44 does the rear have to be 44 too or can it stay with the dana 30? If anyone can answer me I appreciate it.
So there is the factory DANA 44 Rubicon DANA 44 , this UD 44 and the new Fusion 44 you did in your other vidieo ? Im new to jeep and such and trying to wrap my head around the axels choices.
How do these compare to one tons in strength and weight. I know one tons are stronger but how much?
The fucking outro was legendary lmao!!! subscribed for sure, the electric guitar, spinning pull away drone shot, and just keeping the video going – awesome. Great points and walkthrough
Dumbed it down rather well
Subbed. Awesome video.
A steering stabilizer would help tremendously. I did not see one on the UD44
I'm buying a used one , do you think I can transport this in a car If I fold the seat ?
I wish you were my neighbor
Hey Jason! You’re the only person I know that had a UD44 so I was hoping you could help. Did you add gear oil to the top or bottom fill plug? I did the top then at the next change I did the bottom. I’m having gear oil leaking out the top breather hose. I add 2 quarts of 75w140
hi! it is normal if i think the dana 44, don't look that big in diameter?
nice but arb offers 35 spline center that D60 size!
Finally installing mine as I write this comment! So excited to get that old Dana 30 out!
Great video.
