Do you guys offer a Dana 44 Truss? Preferably a lower profile one or something? Thanks.

I asked them a while earlier this year about a front truss that follows the D60 design they have, but for a 44.
Unfortunately one thing I've learned with this type of truss that follows the contour of the axle is that the casting is not usually the same between different axle configurations. They add ribs, take away ribs, move contour geometry and what not. I do have 1 44 in house, but I don't know what it is out of. I'll see if I can find out. I think the 14 bolt is up in line for a Rev. change right now, but the 44 could follow as we do not have much product to support such a popular axle.

I personally am looking for a rear application, but any D44 love from Ballistic would be good.

A front truss for a chevy dana 44 would be nice for guys running smaller lighter rigs and buggys that cant step up too a dana 60 right now, would be interested in seeing one for the chevy 3/4 front dana 44 8 lug if you have time. Would also like too see a better 14 bolt truss too the old one is ok but could use some freshing up.

D44 and D30 trusses are both in final development stages, keep posted. For those of you keeping track, the D30 truss will probably be released first, but not by long.

Schweet! Would one of those D44s be for a waggy drivers drop?

Any update on a universal truss or a smaller axle (D44) specific truss? Thanks.

Is there any possibility of something like a Hp waggy type truss? I want to build something like a 73-77 F100/F150 44 narrowed to waggy width, and will be needing a truss.

Also will your trusses tie the dif cover into it like the BTF trusses do? I would like one of theirs but 1/2" plate is a bit much, I don't want to add that much weight.
