The a means aluminum. It's a problematic axle from the Grand Cherokee with an aluminum center-section.

It's also c-clipped and uses different lockers and such than a standard 44. And it's a rear axle.

More questions what's c clipped?
I bet it does not have same lug pattern as 97 tl?

the axle has clips to keep the shaft in place. the normal 44 has 4 bolts on the axle flange. it's also 5 on 5".. when did the 44 get clips but the way ?:shock:

The 44a is the only 44 with c-clips and depending on what year determines the bolt pattern. Late 95-98 ZJs have a 5x4.5 bolt pattern just like a YJ,TJ and XJ, the 99 and newer have a 5x5 bolt patten like a JK.
