If you have a Rubicon, you have a Dana 44 front and rear. If you have anything else, you have a Dana 30 up front and a 44 in the rear. :yup:

Since i guess i have a dana 30 in the front, Need to find out if it has a seal just inside the nuckle like the zuks or if it relies on a seal at the carrier bearings in the center like a older GMs.

+1 they are next to the carrier. I'm replacing both inner and outer seals right now.
