They arent hard. It just makes it easier with some knowledge and all the correct tools, that makes such a big differrence. As long as the patterns good and you made sure the bearings were seated and crushed the crush sleeve it should be good!

Is it easier to do the front or the rear?? What are the differences?

DANA 44 w/ 4.10 gears. Rough but rebuildable condition: $15.00 + ship.
Front Dana 44 hub to hub, 8 lug complete on stout pallet: 415#
It's what I paid for it, but I'd rather wait on a D60.

Depends what axle. 10b are the same, just takes longer to get the axles out. Dans have shims to set the preload not a crush sleeve.
