Re: 6 lug Dana44 to 8 lug

3/4t spindles are different as well as everything from there out.In the 3/4t disc brake spindles there was the`71-`72 1st design and a 2nd design`72 where the moving parts will be different.You`ll need to know the axle model# off of the tube near the diff housing to the right.You`d do best to get the 2nd design as parts are tough on the 1st...no replacement spindles available and few good used.I can decode #s if you have them.A total axle swap would be the easiest way to go.Both these designs use the same identicle hubs(lock-outs)so you can`t go by that.They toatally interchange.
