Looking for some clarity about these axles. Am I right to say that the hubs, rotors, calipers, and lock outs are all the same on these three axles? Specifically can I pull the lock outs off an '80 D50 and use them on my '77 D44HD?

ok...from what I RECALL...

the rotors are all specific to the axle..as are the spindal hubs and spindals..so they PROBABLY dont interchange...(none of the ones I have will)

HD lockouts are HD lockouts..wont interchange with standard internals..

44 solid and ford TTB 44 lockouts do swap.

I've heard the 50's and the 60's interchange..never tried it though..

theres probably more on the main page in the tech archives.

Good question, the answer is NO, and kinda if the right years...

Here is my Front Dana 44 chart, not even Dana 44's swap with Dana 44's... http://77cj.littlekeylime.com/Spicer/graph/Dana44partnumberscommon_.gif
Off the top of my head, nothing switches from a HD44 to a Dana 50 AND a Dana 60. Some parts go from some dana 44's to some dana 60's, but the early ones. And some parts go from Dana 50's to some Dana 60's. (edit,ok maybe a cotter pin... or gear fluid)

I'm too lazy to give you all the parts and years, but you can find it yourself on http://www2.dana.com/expertforms/demenu.aspx (hint start in the pds, and plan 10-20 hours of reading and not taking.)

Thanks. For some reason I had it in my head that the D44HD was just a D44 with D60 spindles, hubs, and brakes.

Shouldn't be any reason why I can't take the rotors and calipers from the D50 and put them on my rear floating D60?
