I bought a set of rear ends of Craigs list today, the front is a 1/2 Ford Dana 44. Do you guys narrow the front housing when converiting to a solid axle ? I have not measured it yet but it looks to be much wider than the B2s ttb.
Thanks
High pinion 44

I just got the hp44 home yesterday, it is 66" wide out of a 78 F100. What is the common method used to mount these in a B2 ?
Do I have the axles cut down and re-splined or do I buy new ones ? We have a guy that does a very good job of cutting and re-splining axles for a really reasonable price here in Gig Harbor, Washington.
I'm not running a powerful motor, do you think that will work ?
Thanks

everything you need to know about a 44.
The 78 79 axle doesnt have tube runing threw the wedges so it sucks to shorten it.
