Dana 44 front to 5 on 5.5

[Bart]

Okay, I've had a few of these but have forgotten everything about them. I have a Dana 44 housing I'll be dropping in the TJ. I have a right side flat top knuckle but need a left side. I have hi steer arms for both.

The right side outter knuckle I have has the 6 bolt pattern for the spindle so I need to match that on the left side. I need the information on the spindles and hubs I'll need to run a 5 on 5.5 lug pattern.

I know the Ford have the 5 on 5.5 bolt patter, but also have the 5 bolt pattern on the spindle. Is there an article somewhere ? Any help is appreciated.

According to the website below, you can use 74-76 waggy or 73-76 chevy spindles, stub shafts, calipers and caliper brackets, and the 78-79 Ford bearings/hubs/rotors and you should be good to go.

If you need the spindles I have a really nice set for chevy knuckles to ford bearing hubs.

On my Commando I have a narrowed 78 d44 from a chevy Blazer, 78 calipers and brackets, 75 chev small bearing spindles and flat tops and 77 F150 hubs and rotors. I also used the chevy outer stub shaft. There are more F150 hubs and rotors that will work besides the 78-79 but I don't have the years off the top of my head.
