Jeeps have lots of diffs, depending on the model.

Dana 40s are the go for guts.
If it breaks, excellent, time for an upgrade

Creepy,
We need more info.
What sort of Jeep are you refering to? Jeeps used everything from Dana25 to Dana70 and a few odd balls like Timken too.
Then we need to know what sort of engine is going to dish out the abuse - again everything from 2.2L 4cyl to 6.6L 8cyl.
Lastly what size/type of tyres are we talking? Stock 28" GSA's are a lot kinder on driveline than 54" Boggers.....

I retubed it to make it passenger side drop to suit the NP231.
