Currie 44 Features:
 |
Currie 44 high-pinion nodular iron center section features 14 lbs of reinforcement over a stock 44 with thicker walls and webbing to deliver superior strength and rigidity | |
 |
Large 3 in. diameter x .5 in. wall axle tubes (left) are more than 2.5 times stronger than the stock Dana® 30 tubes (right) | |
 |
Currie heavy duty forged inner knuckles (right) are massively stronger than the stock knuckles (left) and are designed for severe off-road use with up to 37” tall tires | |
 |
Lower control arm mounts are one-piece construction with integrated skid plates to help fend off bracket-seeking rocks. Multiple mounting points enable the tuning of suspension geometry for improved performance |
|
 |
Rock-proof Currie nodular iron front cover protects expensive internals and adds structural support to the housing's face flange |
Complete Front Axle Assembly Features:
 |
Currie Performance 4340 chromoly axles with larger Rubicon 1350 u-joints provide superior end-to-end strength over OEM carbon steel axles. Black oxide coating helps protect from surface corrosion for improved durability |

Genuine Dana Spicer ball joints provide original equipment quality, consistency, and long maintenance-free service life | |
 |
Choice of gear ratio to match tire sizes from stock-height up to 37-inches | |
 |
Select the locking differential that meets your wheeling style, choose from ARB Air Locker or Eaton ELocker | |

|
 |
Black satin powder coat finish adds long-lasting protection against rust and corrosion to keep your Currie 44 looking its best |
Notes
Computer Programming: 2012 and newer vehicles require a computer programmer, such as the AEV ProCal Module, to reset the gear ratio and tire height in the vehicle's computer for the proper function of the vehicles stability control and transmission shift points
Differential Carriers: The center section is designed to use standard Dana 44 cariers/lockers (ARB RD117 or Eaton ELocker 19977-010). Not compatible with the factory Rubicon carriers.
Outer Knuckle Assemblies: The Currie 44 is designed to reuse the complete stock JK 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
Tire Size: Recommended maximum 37-inch tire size due to the inherent limitations of the stock brakes, wheel bearings, and axle u-joints
