Aw. :( Sorry to hear you're selling it.
You know they make tops for Jeeps and you can add heat and A/C...or if you want to be cool, get an FSJ. :gigem:
The long side shaft on the d44 is 74-79 nt fsj
Did I miss the price?

That is the "I'm not sure I want to sell, but money talks" price.
I wish you luck in this, and not to be a jack ass, but my neighbor's CJ took some time and his was a 1979 CJ with 44" tires, Dana 60, Chromo shafts, LS engine, Atlas transfer case, narrowed rear, air shocked and linked rear for 14k, and it was equally clean, maybe not as original looking
I sheared a 9/16" ARP stud off the drivers side d-44 high steer arm/knuckle. I must have put it in a bind and hydro assist took care of the rest.

On my 60 those loosen up, have to hit them with the impact. I guess it's not the stud that loosens, but the nut... That and t-case bolts once you get some gears in them don't seem to like to stay tight.
The jeep was looking a little run down. A few coats of Rustoleum hammered black and some black vinyl spray paint and we're looking good again.
