YOU CAN MAKE ABOUT ANYTHING WORK WITH THE RIGHT KNOWLEDGE, SKILL & EQUIPMENT I USED A DANA 44 FRONT & FORD 9" REAR FROM A '79 FULL SIZE BRONCO ON MY B2 AND I HAVE LESS THAN HALF OF THE BID PRICE IN IT, BUT I ALSO OWN A MACHINE SHOP WITH MILLS, LATHES, SAWS ETC AND THE BENEFIT OF 30+ YEARS METAL WORKING EXPERIENCE SO I EITHER FABED OR CUT AND MOVED WHAT NEEDED TO BE DONE. BUT IT CAN BE DONE!

the width i think would be perfect for the b2 alot of guys run d30s out of xjs and plus if you get these they are geared and locked but the rear would be kinda hard but you could cut off the coils stuff and put leaf spring perches on it

I'd go for that!! The gears and air lockers alone will run you that price.

ok i was just thinking about this today but i think the d44 that came in rubicons were elockers not air lockers so check out these axles before you get them and the rear was a limited slip

let me check on some jeep sites and come back to you
