Newby question here needing axle info

Rolandkirkes · Feb 11, 2016

I have a set of 3/4 ton 2010 dodge axles. Thinking about putting under a Cherokee for a winter trail rig. Can anyone tell me what they are cause they look really beefy but they don't look like a 60 or 70. And if they ate strong or junk? What kind of lockers are made for them etc. thanks in advance.

Prob need a pic. Cause I'm guessing the answer you will get is "they are dodge 3/4 Ton axles".

If it's a diesel, it's an AAM 11.5" rear axle and AAM 9.5" front.

That rear axle is super overkill and will hang up on every piece of gravel on a trial unless you run a 54". Lol. Super beef though.

I know everybody's friend bat mobile will runs or did run that front axle. Plenty strong for a trail rig

You can just search the popular gear websites with the info I put at the top and find locker options.

I looked them up online and that's what they are is an 11.5 and a 9.5. How strong are they compared to a 60 or a 70?

They seem to handle a 43" sticky pretty well with a small block foot to the floor with RCVs. I think Will broke plenty of stubs etc.

They for sure can't handle a 42" red. So don't even think about it. . . . . .

Hey no blasphemy here

Who else is gonna defend a tire that rivals a 31" all terrain?

Sorry for the derail- we obviously know each other and like to poke at each other.
Those are good axles for a trail/crawling rig. I wouldn't hesitate to use them.

Welcome to HL!!

In "Dana" terms, think super duty 50 front, 80 rear.
