Anyone done this? There is not much room for a steering arm, so I am unsure if this could even be done safely. I know, I know get a d60.... I am just tryin to make use of some stuff I already have, and save some cash...thanks

all-pro off road makes one. i had it on my toy60 hybred. it is not on thier website so you need to call and talk to chris.

just use the "standard" dana 44 bolt pattern. same as a balljoint dana 60.

are you sure about that? these are nowhere near a flat top 44. they are a funky ford design.

Actually, I thought, (there's my problem!) the 50 had the same knuckle as a ball joint 60 and if so, yep, mill 'em, drill 'em and tap'em. This is exactly what dynatrac does (std. 44 bolt pattern) even though they do use a "dynatrac" casting for the outer knuckle.

The knuckles I have dont have near the room for a 44 arm. You could prolly get 2 of the bolts in there. Its a rectangular pad, maybe 2"long and 3" wide. There is also a cast in caliper bracket that I may not use. Using a tight 4 bolt pattern, similar to a small kingpin 60 arm may work, but there would be tons of leverage on the studs.
