All made in the USA, all custom built! We have 99% of all measurements so you just need to tell us your vehicle and we would have your axles in stock in about a week!
These ended up being cheaper than the old Warn shafts AND we can get them in widetrack lengths!
Thanks!

I am 99% sure they can, there may be an extra cost. I will call them on Monday and find out.

Yes, we can. We have the Grand Wagoneer ones listed online now but I was going to wait until I had them all listed (of course the QT rigs will be more expensive since they are over a certain length) and needed to figure it out first...

Pretty sure it had a QT. I have not had the shafts out yet.

Flint, if you get me the BOM off of the axle, I can tell you what it came out of and get you a quote for some Chromoly shafts. Thanks!

I guess I am not sure where the BOM info is on the axle. I read it was on the long side on the tube. I don't see any markings on either tube. The carrier is offset slightly to the right. Not as far as a QT NT axle though. I got numbers off the flanges of each axle shaft. Is that it?

Sometimes the numbers are really hard to read but I have yet to find an axle that didn't have them:

Huh, I just learned something. First the easy stuff. It is out of a 1979 J-truck with 3.54 gears.
What I learned was that the J-trucks ran the same axle whether it was a QT or not. I didn't realize this.
In the spicer books, it says, Cherokee Chief Std Transfer Case has one Dana 44 in it and then it says Cherokee Chief Quadratrac Transfer Case which shows a different Dana 44, and repeats for the Wagoneers, but doesn't say this for the J-trucks, only shows one axle width per year for the J-trucks irregardless of whether they had a QT or not...
I'll let you know a price tomorrow.

I'll double check on the warranty when I call about Flint's shafts. $195 is per axle on the front inner shafts. It is actually cheaper with the IFSJA discount but not the full 15%.

I can't find any way to decode the date code but I think you are probably correct.
Price on the rear axles IFSJA is $270. Since all of the QT rigs (including Wag, Chief and J-truck) have a longer than normal axle, there is a $60 up charge for these axles rigs.
Total price on a set of rear shafts for a quadratrac rig is $330 IFSJA price. If you want bearings and retainers installed to the shafts, the price is $95 extra for that.
I'll get these up on the webstore tonight or tomorrow.
Thanks!

They don't give a manufacturers warranty for anything 30 spline and under. We offer a 12 month warranty on everything we sell so we would honor this warranty. We won't warranty the ears that the u-joints attach to or abuse.

We can upgrade the axles to 33 spline for no extra charge. With 33-spline axles, the manufacturer warranties the spline end of the shaft for 2 years!
