Is High Altitude Dana 44 same as Mojave?

[planojeeper]

The specs of the High Altitude mention Dana 44 Wide front and rear axles. Does that mean the HA has the same axles as the Mojave?

It looks like the axles are the same as max tow, meaning open or posi wide axles. I would not expect them to have the Mojave iron knuckles.

I have a Overland on order and the axles are Dana M210 wide axle on the front, and Dana M220 on the rear - the same as Mojave. I would expect the iron knuckles to be standard on these axles.

Wide axles on the Overland? Are you sure? I believe only the Max Tow, Rubicon, Mojave and High Altitude have them.

Also, don't count on them having the beefier knuckles unless there is a Mojave or 392 sticker on the hood.

Yes, mine is a HA.

Ah, your post said Overland, not HA.

I know, potayto/potahto.

Jelly of that quilted leather! Post lots of pics. I'm tempted to go HA when I eventually order just for that interior. I had planned Rubicon, but I don't think I'd need the Rubi-goodies as I won't wheel it as much or as hard as I do my JKR if I'm honest with myself.

That is why I also chose the Overland HA. I won’t be rock climbing and I do enjoy creature comforts!

AMEN. Just got my black one and love it. Now to de-rake and get rid of these passenger tires.

Do the axles make a difference in the drive/ride vs the overland? I've heard it makes it feel a bit more planted. Can't tell if the other portions of suspension are the same as the Overland. I have not been able to drive an HA yet and have found very little video reviews of the HA ride difference.

I've driven both the HA and Overland and found no difference or different feeling...

Mojave also has 4:10 gearing (like the rubicon) which is def a big difference in acceleration and drivabilty around town let alone when used off road
