The 6-speed cars came with the Dana 44, and auto cars had the Dana 36. Both should be better than the 7.5 10-bolt. At least everything I hear and read would suggest it.

The Dana 44 in the 6 speeds is a super Dana 44 much like the Viper. Viper Gear sets will fit in the C4 Dana 44 case sometimes the case needs a little clearancing for the ring gear.

A Dana 36 can live into the 11s with an A4.
