Re: Dana 44 6 lug to 8 lug

Thanks guys. Looked at the scrap yard today and found a 44 8 lug with full time hubs with 4:09 gears for $50.00. The whole thing looks to be in pretty good shape. My 44 6 lug has 3:07 gears. Which carrier is better? My 454 BBC does not mind the tall gear, but I think something in the 3:55 range would be better all around for mpg and such. Might want to go posi or locker, is there a difference in the two carriers or not?
