OK, first off I'm an idiot, so get over it. I've not ever dealt with axles at all.
I bought these on line from a guy in Upper Alabama. Advertised as Dana 44's from a late 80's Blazer. He had them under his CJ7 but was going to Rockwells and a 454
Anyway, got'm, slid'm under the CJ and the rear perches matched up fine
The front was more difficult (as some of you may remember) due to the shackle reverse and outboarding issues with 3/8" frame plates - but the front is done and it LOOKS like a 44.
(mines cleaner, with a hi-steer though )
The rear however is round w/about a 10.5 ctr-ctr bolt pattern, 2-3/4 tubes and has 12 bolts in the cover, no C-clip, and 28 splines. The outter bearing end is a 4 bolt flange, with way different axle shafts than the AMC20. And this is supposed to be a Detroit with 4.56's. I'm having doubts on that too (Eaton?)!!!

It doesn't look like a Chevy 44??
The two rear shafts (old//spares)
No castings on the pumpkin or webs except the large N on top???
What the hell is it??? I've got to get parts and new front spare axles
Thanx
