These look like the axles under the Egyptian Jeeps

That's exactly what they are. Dana 60 on leafs rear, Dana 44 on coils up front.
Although I have to say that if I were looking to replace axles on my JK, I'd probably look to put Dana 60's front and rear - on coils in both places. I don't really pack light, but I'm not towing any howitzers. Leaf springs would probably be a bit over the top. The other thing is that 60's front and rear would let me run 37's with confidence at some point in the future.

Agreed. 8)

Those are wicked! But considering the price and what people are going to be using them for, wouldn't they be better off selling these with 4:88 or even 5:13 gears?

These are factory diffs

ummmm, is it just me or doesnt dynatrac sell bolt in jk pro rock 60's for about the same price... with whatevr diff you want... and brakes... and chromo axles... yeah, nice but no thanks. would be cool if they sold you the entire jeep they were meant for.

For that price I'd buy Currie, Solid, Dynatrac or TeraFelx D60's. Just priced out front and rear for a JK (brackets pre-done), $11 000 - 14 000, with detroit in the rear. Bit more with selectables, and price depends on company. All 4 company's work with the stock ABS, ESP, Traction sensors and can run 4.10, 4.88, 5.13, 5.38 gearing beefier bearings, and 35 spline. I think it may have been Solid (could be wrong) offered an upgraded brake package too - Brembo 6 piston calipers designed for heavy weight loading, still works with the ABS system. The TF and Currie look like they're the beefiest at this point, and the Currie even has a AR400 steel skid plate (stuff they make loader buckets and stuff out of).

Teraflex axles are the junk of junk. Buyer beware.
Solid, currie, dynatrac, all quality 60's.
Of course the top of the top is a well built 9", but they are more money and more work then 60's.
-
I've looked at some 9" that people have made, but yeah, the costs got up there.
-
the reason I am going with a 9" out back is because the parts seemed to cost less, ex: lockers, gears, etc. But yea for big rubber seems you gotta truss it up, and cant build one without the tru-9 HP.
but yea I agree with eric, these jk diffs would be a lot more sexy if they where being sold in north america under a JT.
