Front Axle Shafts for Dana 44

Postby Jeepster » Mon Mar 16, 2009 12:04 pm

Any body got any feed back on Aftermarket Axle shafts? Such as, YUKON, USA CROME ALLOY, Superior, Gonna be upgrading and looking into buying the Yukon ones.

Anybody have any input on these?

NEOW is probably where you'll get the most response about this, it has more "tech traffic" than this site.

But IIRC Alloy USA went out of business and was bought by another company. A few guys in my club are having problems getting the "Lifetime warranty" filled on thier busted shafts.

Superior was always good but always on national-back order. Takes months to get. Moser does not honor their crap anymore. Might try Yukon or whatever other companies there are left out there.

tip: If they don't have your Superiors in stock, you will NEVER get them.

I like Yukon stuff. Their 4340 shafts seem to hold up well.

I run Mitchell alloy shafts in my rear axle. Good quality.

We (Bay State Off Road) retail the Yukon shafts and haven't had any complaints or problems. I'd run them.
