Actual Comparason: 10bolt VS. D44

[TerryD]

Hey guys, I was wondering if a few of you guys with some spare shafts sitting around would mind getting a few measurements for me. I'd like to have the OD measurements of the splines (both 28 and 30 for the 10 bolt) and the OD measurements of the neck-downs for them. I've looked a few places online but no one I've found has the information I need. Thanks guys!

''The GM 10 bolt front was designed after the D44. The GM D44 front has a 1.310" dia. 30 spline shaft and a GM 10 bolt front has a 1.280" dia. 28 spline shaft (1989-91 has 30 spline). Tube dia. is different also with the D44 being 2.750" and the 10 bolt almost 3". ''

I can get you those measurements on both the 28 and 30 spline this weekend man.

I def have a carrier I can give you, Ill have to look to see if I have any more good spindles left over. How about a tie-rod or 2?

Sounds good man! Just give me a heads up on when you're headed down so I can have a trailer here. My XJ has no more room inside.
