Im low on money, but i want to lock my dana 35. I was thinking about going with the super 35 with a detroit, but its around $950. Well, i was looking around and i found a detroit locker on ebay that is for a d35 and is 30 spline. Its $280. I then found used dana 44 axles (30 spl) on ebay for $100. Would this work?
I know i shouldnt spend a dime on the d35 but i dont have two grand to toss at a new d44. I also dont want any fabrication or troubles with something like a ford 8.8. Would d44 axle shafts fit in a d35 with a 30 spline locker? What else would i need (bearings, seals)? How much would that other stuff cost? Thanks in advance

I'd wait till the funds arrive. Save the money you have and take the time to set it up right. Then you wont be kickin' yourself in the pants when you have to go back under there and do it again.

Wouldn't even fit, the D44 axle shafts are a little larger than the D35. (accually about .5" larger in Diameter. but... you can get custom made shafts for that D35 for ~$350 but I would look around at different options. ford 8.8's from 95+ explorers (if you do the work yourself) are pretty inexpensive to build and are a little stronger than the D44 when properly modified!
