Oh gotcha. So are you saying they had both or just the 44?

They came with either, but i could care less to search for the actual specs on what came in the v8. I just know from what i've read the aluminum 44s really suck.

A44s came in the V8 ZJ's. They bend very easily and generally suck balls.

The 44a's just had aluminum centers, I would definitely run one over a 35. They don't really have any aftermarket support for lockers (I believe aussie is the only one) They also came in 4.0's with the towing package.

Yup both the 44a and 35 were c-clip. Either way I would steer clear and find a better axle.
