Tried a search but to hard to word it right for it to work.
I was reading the post "44 and bronco rotors" but could decifer every thing out.
May I have a parts list for converting a waggy 44 to 5lug.
thanks

Not sure of the Bolt pattern on the ford knuckles, But I would guess that if the ford spindles and everything else on out would make the change for you.
Need to find out if ya need ford spindles and or KNuckles to make it all work.

hey you what your locker?:)
I am thinking of tossing a 44 &9in. under my zj. I already have rims and 35's off my bronco.
What about using early wrangler parts are the 30 and 44 basicly the same?

Early dana 30 outers and dana44 outers are interchangable

But unfortunetly late mode dana 30's wont play nice
the ball joints of the dana 30's we have are pressed into the axle housing ends and not into the knuckles like on D44's


Yep I still want the locker

I actually gave JoshC the money because he said he was picking up some ears from you.

Heres what I have sitting here now I was going to use this stuff but now I'm goign 6 lug.

Doin this all on a waggy 44 with flat top knuckles form a chebby and a j truck.
Hubs and rotors 1981 Ford F150
Bearings 2 sets Ford F150
Hub Seal QTY 2
Calipers 2 1977 wagoneer (GM calipers)
Brake pads Performance friction

Spindles Small bearing 73-early 77 GM 1/2 tons, and 74-77 FSJs type qty 2

2SpindleBearing/Seals TimkenPN SBK1

2Spindle seals timken p/n 6954S

With the waggy brake caliper braket there is some rubbing of the "inner sheild" on the back of the lug studs...some cutting or grinding takes care of this. This just happens to be my experience with it.

It's about time something worked out for the locker -money exchange :D
The transaction only took what like 2, 3 months and we live an hour away from each other.

Well thanks for holding on to it for me.
