Spartan Locker Install on a Dana44HD D44A for Jeep WJ

We finally found the source of my issue with the rear axle of my Jeep. We removed the Locker only to find teeth were rounded out on the edges and you can see some gouges as well! Luckily I had purchased a new locker to have just in case that was the issue so we were able to install it. It was my first time installing a ratcheting locker and it was not hard to do! We did it without removing the gears and So far the Jeep has been solid!

Does the truss help the Dana 44a , does the spartan lockers perform well

@lozas0213 3 ай бұрын

But being that my overland has the d44a and the varilockers. Can I upgrade to this locker ? With my stock 242 ?

@danielmiller166 7 ай бұрын

Did this Dana 44a have the Vari-loc in it before you installed the locker???

@aussietaipan8700 10 ай бұрын

Hey matey, not sure if you have video's on the standard Quadra Drive Varilock systems, I would love to see some good vids on them.

I have a 1999 dodge ram 1500 4x4 I was thinking about putting one in the front Dana 44 low pinion I don't know if it would hold up to 35s 250hp and it weighs 7000 lb what do you think and a little sand and mud I don't do rock climbing

Wrong oil for sure. I’ve had mine in for 8yrs so far no wear, pulled them out 3 times to check in that time. I have front and rear spartan lockers full synthetic 80/140. 👍

I got spartan in my dana 30 front and love it... im swapping in the 44a (and regear front), but its the varilock so i guess if i wanted to put spartan in rear too id have to change out the carrier?

Yes carrier would need to be changed i believe also axle shafts.. I got mine from junkyard just need locker now

I have a silver 04 that looks like yours before the wrap. 4.0 Laredo with 3.55's but have a D30/D44HD with 3.73's out of a V8 to swap in. What are all the D44a locker or LSD options available? I'm new to the Jeep world... I've really learned to appreciate these WJ's, but as a lifelong Toyota guy I feel like these things absolutely suck with open diffs, even just on wet roads. I already have a Spartan locker for the front (not installed yet) that came with the V8 axles. Do you think it's worth it to regear them before I install them or will 3.73's make it noticeably better? Right now it's on stocks with a 3" IRO short arm lift but I'm thinking about the 4" long arm this years black Friday. I don't plan to go larger than a 33" tire ever. I have an 84 4Runner to beat on...haha You enjoying our east coast humidity?! 🤣

@NajarOffroad 11 ай бұрын

There isn’t many options I know Torq and Spartan Locker have one I haven’t done enough research to see if arb or someone else makes something. With the 4.0s probably worth regear at 33s I drove mine with the stock 3.55 gears for a while but the gears definitely helped feel more normal😂 this humidity man it’s something else

@jdtisme9100 11 ай бұрын

@NajarOffroad you think 3.73 will help enough or should I go ahead and bite the bullet and do 4.56 or something steeper like that? I'm sure LS fest will be brutal also...haha I may try and make it there and say hi... I'm less than 2 hours from there.

@MyBacktrail 11 ай бұрын

Can I put one of these in my stock 04 Limited rear? I really need it for snow where I live. Also, what locker can I put in my front? It's a daily driver btw. Where do I look to see what diffs I have?

@NajarOffroad 11 ай бұрын

I don’t think lockers are good for snow! Do some research on it. This locker works on stock Dana44A there are other lockers just need to see what axle you have first

@chrisgarage900 11 ай бұрын

Just use gasket maker

Surprisingly good! Even after reusing it no leaks! I prefer it over gasket maker because you can drive it instantly instead of having to wait for it to dry

The d44a is the biggest flaw of the WJ (for off-roading). A d30 would be so much better, you’d have the option to do super d30.
