How to ID Dana 44 8 lug hubs

[UpnAdam]

I found some on Craigslist but the guy isn’t real knowledgeable about this stuff. It was originally listed as “8 lug Dana 40 hubs/rotors”. I asked him if he meant Dana 44 and he said yes. I was just curious if anyone knows of identifying features I could look for. There’s a single picture of one of the hubs and it looks brand new never used. I’m wanting to put them on a k5 Dana 44 to match a 14 bolt FF I have waiting. Just trying to gather everything I need before I jump in to the project. Any help is appreciated

I guess what I’m asking is are these GM or Ford or Dodge?

as far as i know gm/dodge share stub shaft length and ford is specific length .

so not knowing if gm or ford then you need to know how to measure them inside for the correct spacing length .

and going from 6 lug to 8 lug on gm front = backing plates bigger . so make sure you can find them .

Those sure look like 9/16 studs so that rules out ford and dodge. If the rotor has vents in it then its gm/dodge. If the rotor is solid on the hat that should be a ford rotor.
