Solid Axle Industries Releases HD 44 Rear Axle Assembly
North Jackson, OH (June 7, 2007) - Solid Axle Industries has listened to the Jeep TJ owners, and is proud to announce what is possibly the finest heavy duty bolt-in replacement 44 axle on the market. Built to address thin walled tubes, weak housing design, improperly sized shafts and bearings leading to failure, and ultimately a disappointing weekend, the Solid Axle HD 44 is centered on their own engineered 44 low pinion housing featuring 1/2 inch wall DOM axle tubes. Next, the assembly is fitted with premium components (ARB, Wilwood, Precision Gear, Timken, Goodridge), 35 spline alloy shafts, and is hand assembled to precise guidelines and standards. Finally, the assembly is inspected, numbered, and packaged in a hardwood crate. It is shipped with a folder containing your owner's documentation, and other information.
