Dana 30 or Dana 44
Dana 30 , 27 spline – reccomend tires no bigger than 33′s ? Dana 44 , 30 spline I have a 97 sonoma , 4.3 , 5 speed , running 35x12.5′s now . But want to do solid axle swap. Some trailing,mud,rock- but is my daily driver . gears are going to be 4:56 . I can get a set of Dana 30′s , but should i go with the Dana 44 ? I will probley go from 35′s to 39.5′s . so the dana 44 would be the smarter way to go ? next would be weight 30 vs 44 ? you can rebuild a 30 to be almost a 44 , but then would you just keep brakein axles ? I know just thinking about weight for V6 , S-10 body style , will do chip later

Tip:

4x4 Engine Revs<br> Too many revs in tricky situations will have your wheels spinning. Spinning wheels have no grip, so as soon as you feel the wheels spin, lower your revs a little so the tyres can regain grip.
