- Yes. I worked at Dana for about three years, and the Jaguar wing does use
- standard Dana 44 components (diff, ring, pinion and side gears). This was
- true of late model Jag wings (say '72 thru '79), but if I'm not mistaken, Jag
- has since stopped using a Dana manufactured wing. I could be wrong, but I
- don't believe they're buying parts or assemblies from any of the U.S. reqional
- assembly facitilies; they may however be getting them from a Dana overseas
- RAF which would mean the parts would still be standard.
