The Currie 44 axle assembly is a direct bolt-in solution that reduces the overall cost by enabling you to retain the complete stock JK outer knuckle assemblies (brakes, hubs, etc.) and stock wheel bolt pattern.

Product Features:

Currie 44 High-Pinion

Heavy-duty nodular iron center section features 14 lbs of reinforcement over a stock 44 with thicker walls and webbing to deliver superior strength and rigidity

Axle Tubes

Large 3 in. diameter x .5 in. wall axle tubes (left) are more than 2.5 times stronger than the stock tubes (right)

Forged Inner Knuckles

Currie heavy-duty forged inner knuckles (right) are massively more robust than the stock knuckles (left) and are designed for severe off-road use with tall tires

Geometry

Front axle steering geometry is optimized for lifted vehicles and large tires, featuring 5° of caster and 5° of pinion angle

Performance Axles

Currie Performance 4340 chromoly axles provide superior end-to-end strength over OEM carbon steel axles. Black oxide coating helps protect from surface corrosion for improved durability

Control Arm Mounts

Lower control arm mounts are one-piece construction with integrated skid plates to help fend off bracket-seeking rocks

Pinion Flange

The included 1310 pinion flange allows the factory driveshaft to be used without modification

Differential Cover

Rock-proof Currie nodular iron front cover protects expensive internals and adds structural support to the housing's face flange

Powder Coat Finish

UV Stable Satin black powder coat finish adds long-lasting protection against rust and corrosion to keep your Currie 44 looking its best

Notes

Outer Knuckle Assemblies: The Currie 44 is designed to reuse the complete stock Wrangler outer knuckle assemblies from the ball joints out (knuckles, hubs, disk brake calipers, and rotors)

Overall Width: Axle width is 65.375 inches (stock JK width) between wheel mounting surfaces

Vehicle Lift: If using the factory height suspension or a leveling kit without bump stop spacers, an aftermarket track bar is required to clear the differential cover. The RockJock 4x4 track bar RJ-9120FJKF provides ample clearance.

Tire Size: Recommended maximum 37-inch tire size due to the inherent limitations of the stock brakes, wheel bearings, and axle u-joints
