      Description

      Maximum Traction for Extreme Off-Road Terrain. The Dana 44 Front Locking Differential is the gold standard for 2007-2018 Jeep Wrangler JK Rubicon owners who demand uncompromised performance in low-traction environments. Unlike a standard open differential that sends power to the wheel with the least resistance, the Dana 44 Front Locking Differential mechanically joins both front axle shafts together to ensure they rotate at the same speed. This provides the 2007-2018 Jeep Wrangler JK Rubicon with the essential grunt needed to climb over slippery rocks, through deep mud, or across loose sand where a standard drivetrain would simply spin its tires.

      Heavy-Duty Forged Steel Construction. To handle the massive torque loads generated by 4-lo gearing and oversized tires, the Dana 44 Front Locking Differential is built with high-strength forged internal gears and a rugged carrier body. This robust architecture ensures that the Dana 44 Front Locking Differential can withstand the violent shock loads and high-stress cycles common in 2007-2018 Jeep Wrangler JK Rubicon off-roading. By upgrading to this heavy-duty locker, you significantly reduce the risk of internal gear failure, providing peace of mind when pushing your Jeep to its absolute limits on the most demanding trails.

      Installation. Putting this Dana 44 Front Locking Differential on your Jeep Wrangler JK Rubicon takes 4 hours to install.

      Warranty. There is a limited warranty on this product.

      Application. The Dana 44 Front Locking Differential fits 2007-2018 Jeep Wrangler JK Rubicon models.
