Picked up some 3/4 tons. D44 front and 14 bolt ff. Do I have to do anything special to run 15 inch wheels? The reason I ask is because I have like new 38.5x15 inch boggers. I hope I can still use them. Thanks

You can use them.
But yes you have to grind the calipers and brackets ALOT.

Its not bad..compared to a 60
Check the advanced previews forum. I have an article with pics showing the amount of grinding with 4.25" backspaced wheels

Sorry wrong!
There must be some differences in wheels or 3/4 ton calipers compared to newer metric thread calipers.

I have only had to grind down a small amount on d44 and 8 lug 10b seams there was a casting ridge on the calipers that had to go and that was all.
White wagon wheels where my best friend in highschool....I remember when a 8 lug 15" white wagon wheel was $20 each brand new

I did it on an older 3/4 ton D44 front and had to grind alot off the caliper and bracket.

depends on the back spacing of the wheel.
