There is a good change that they will work. The calipers are pretty much the same I think but Chevy did use two different size banjo bolts for their brake lines but I can not remember what year has which size.

I recently did this swap with a D60 out of a CUCV and the calipers were Bendix and the banjo bolts matched the calipers on the 10B
on my '90 Jimmy.

BOUT TIME YOU GOT OVER HERE NEWBIE :flipoff2:

You might bolt directly on, or might have to open up the hole a bit. Can you eyeball it and scope it out? I opened up the hole in my stainless lines with a drill bit - no problems. One other thing, you might have to grind/round off the banjo fitting, Stephen W actually clued me in on that one.

One tons rule..............

In answering your ?, no they are not a direct bolt in. The D44 is an oddball. You can make them work or buy new lines. If you deside on new lines just get a set for a 10 bolt and they should fit. As far as I know Dodge and GM used the same fitting on the caliper and if you want to double check just go to the parts store and compare the 2.

Shannon I have a line on a few trails nearby, up in the Scappoose area. I might have found one up here by my house.
I went part way up and if it wasn't 3am I might have gone all the way. But it was fun for a moment. LOL
Lets get that bad boy in and hit some trails. :D
