dude you did not say free! you said you had some stuff so yes definately want them when can you drop them off?

 I should have my utility trailer back on Sunday if you need to borrow it to go pick up your parts. Or go and buy Nathan's It has been well tested and the install is something you could do yourself. 

Do you know for sure what is wrong with the D44?

Usually when recieving free stuff its good etiqute to go get it. Maybe even bring a present......

Yes this would require getting off your a$$ but slightly less effort then jacking up the rear end of your XJ and seeing if the wheel bearings are shot. You could even go all the way and pull the tires and drums and see if the seals are leaking, pull the cover and visually inspect the gears and maybe even pull the 4 bolts holding the axle shafts in and look at the bearings.

But this would require effort, it would probably be easier to have someone else take it for a drive and then have someone else drop off free parts. All you need now is for someone to install it for you, for free....


SHEESH!
That response is soooo sweet Clay! I truly miss you " laying the smacketh down" on 4wheeler.ca. in the Jeep section.
It's not totally Pook's fault for wanting me to drop off free parts and what not. He only has one vehicle right now, and it's wounded. I would however ,enjoy the idea of him riding a little girls bike with tassels  to my house to retrieve said parts. He could just put the greasy parts in a little basket hanging from the handlebars. That would be worth the price of admission!

I always like to try and help  :D

I just cann't justify putting a D35 in place of a D44 when the D44 might just need an axle bearing or side gears.....
