Based on what you've stated about your use, I'd see if the 3.73's are usable. If so, I would put them in the axle with the 4.11's & put the 8-lug up front to match it.
The D44 vs. C10, both have their strong & weak points. They balance out in the end. But the open/disk front will be nice compared to the closed/ knuckle/drum. I can't wait to get mine swapped!
I have no idea about the small brake C14.
