A whaaaat?
Show me this rwd jeep.
And why go through all the trouble, just buy a 4x4..
Also that Dana 44 was ttb not a solid axle
The new body wranglers (JK and JKU) came with a RWD model for a few years.
The front axle is almost identical to a 4x4 just with the differential deleted so the swap is a stright bolt on.
The RWD wranglers get pretty cheap compared to the 4x4s. All you need is new drive shafts, transfer case, and the front axle plus some small stuff and its an easy swap from what I read.
Buying a 4x4 would be easier, but a lot of guys/shops that build really heavy duty rigs start with the RWD just because its cheaper and half of the components get replaced for the build anyways.
