Thumbs up New Anodized Billet Alum D44 big hub Center Replacements

Thats right... We now make a sweet alternative replacement for that cracked center switch on your big hub Dana 44 front hubs.. You boys & girls don't want to miss out...

These are anodized billet aluminum in either Red or Blue.

Some of the local board members in Spokane Wa have seen them first hand at the swapmeet we were just at and loved them..

They will price for $150.00 a pair-plus S&H

I reallly can't say enough about them.. I will let the photos speak for themselves

Why only Red or Blue? (Are you trying to stay with stock colors)

Re: New Anodized Billet Alum D44 big hub Center Replacements

Kool, 'bout time. The others are hard to find and really getting expensive. Are they made to the exact specs as the originals? Match right up with spicer seals, pins and springs? The price is reasonable, my concern would be the wear on the holes where the steel pins goes through the knobs and mounts up to the rotator cam. What type of aluminum are thet CNC'd from? Have they been field tested? Intrested in a set...

These are within 5 thousands of an inch(machining standards). They match perfectly with seals,pins and spring. We have tested as set for over 13K miles on and offroad. No sign of wear. We wouldn't sell a product we haven't tested..

The aluminum I believe is a 6061 t6 billet.

I can't see these wearing and or breaking at the pin holes like the plastic originals. Especially if your hubs are taking care of and greased up..

Re: New Anodized Billet Alum D44 big hub Center Replacements

I forgot to mention.. We have right now
4-sets of blue
2-sets of red

We are trying to see how much of a demand is out there for these.

We are also in works to make the outer case of these hubs that these centers sit in..

Re: New Anodized Billet Alum D44 big hub Center Replacements

As it stands we may not produce anymore than we have.. We were hoping for a larger response for these.

So what we have may all we build..

We'll see
