Ghetto-SAS... I love it!!!

 

jeez, ill stop asking questions now. no one takes the time to actually read what i type.

thanks anyways

 

you been on the forum long enough to know we do this to eachother

 

I believe the original question was "How much have youll spent on them?"
I don't think it matters what I am doing with the axle or if it will work or not
I really don't care.the axle will still rotate the same way unless it is flipped up side down.So back to the point of this post "How much have youll spent on them"? or who has one they will sell to got dirty?

 

Wanna know about Dana 44s? go to fullsizebronco.com...and let them rip ya a new one...

 

bud i can bet we were trying to help him NOT do something stupid......like wasting money on something that will not work.......that is what this forum is about, helping others not do stupid things.....and to help people learn....

 

I've done my fair share of fab'n and axle swaps.I will make it work as I have always.I'm makin chris a *****'n deal,my built axle for a rev 44 front.If anyone has one please let him know.

sorry about the introduction

Just thought a I would let ya'll know. If ya'll have a spare axle laying around
go out side and rotate the pinion note which way it rotates then flip the axle over and rotate it changes the direct of rotation.Now think about a toyota with 8 in axles front and rear .The third members are interchangable front and rear.

Dana designed the first reverse spiral axle in the early sixties for Ford. Dana released the 44RS for production in January 1965. Early enough to possibly be under a few rare 1965 F100's, however no written confirmation on this has been found. The 44RS was a complete new design in axle, with special design to lube the pinion that was above the fluid level. This axle has also been called the Dana 44 High Pinion, Dana 44 Reverse Rotation, Dana 44 Reverse Cut, Dana 44 High clearance and many more names. A reverse spiral axle has the center line of the pinion contacting the ring gear above the center line of the axle, and thus has different lubrication passages. This axle offers a strength increase over a standard rotation axle while in forward movement. It allows the drive shaft to contact the pinion yoke at a much higher level of connection, thus keeping the drive shaft several inches higher. The gears are not interchangeable with gear sets that are designed with the pinion below the centerline of the ring gear, however the carrier is. Reverse Cut refers to the direction the ring gear is cut for reverse spiral housing. The axiom of the reverse cut is to strengthen the gear while in the front drive axle of operation. Standard cut gears can not be swapped with reverse cut gears, however in the Dana 44 the ring gear carrier can be swapped. High pinion, Hy-Pinion or Hi-Pinion are all slang used in and out of the industry for a reverse spiral axle. High Clearance is a Ford marketing term used for the reverse spiral axle. Reverse rotation: is the single most misused axle term. Reverse Rotation is a slang term used to describe a reverse spiral cut housing. Neither the axle nor the axle shafts travel in a reverse motion, or travel 'backwards' compared to a regular housing. This term only shows the ignorance of the person or company using it.
