dana 44 dually hubs???

[jeepzilla47]

does anybody know where to order/part #'s for the dually hubs. i am putting hummer rims on and want to keep the back spacing on them. i am getting the rims cheap and dont want to put the money in them that it would cost to change backspacing.

Don't have the part numbers but you can get them off of pre Dana 60 1 on Dually Chevy trucks. I think 76 and earlier or somewhere around that. Besure to get the bracke calpiper braket and calipers cause you get to upgrade to one ton brakes. Big improvement.

I have a complete setup in my garage sitting on the floor but that Dana 20 loving Scotty dude has spoken for them. These came off of a 74 1 on dually truck with the HD Dana 44.

if dana loving 20 does not get them, how much would you want for them. i am from the south and that kind of truck is hard to find.hd anything is hard to find:)

is that all there is to the swap ? just change out the hubs and brakes ?

[FSJeeper]

jeepzilla,look thru the 4x4 mags until you see the little add for wheel spacers. seems like you can get a set of 2" bolt on wheel spacers for round $100,that may be another option. also,what axle are you currently running? swapping in a GM 10 bolt or 44 will also gain you some room

just kidding bout the purchase scotty smile.gif i have a 44 in the front now. i checked on the spacers, and the biggest one they have is 2 in. i dont know if this is enough for the hummer rims. how much wider will it be with just adding the 3/4 ton hubs????

they have something like 7" of backspacing.i think even with a 2" spacer i think youll have clearance prollems withthe leaf springs and shocks if youre runing a NT jeep axle. if its a widetrack,i think it would be better,but dont kow if that would be enuff or not. a full width chebby axle and prolly all youd need to worry about is if the rim was going top hit the steering arms

also,i wasnt giving you a hard time bout trying to purchase them,it is simply my supreme duty to stir up trouble with mr fsjeeper about the strength of d20s ;) i dont think he gives them enuff credit. smile.gif

On my front Dana 60 I needed at least 4" spacing to make the Hummer rims work. Dually front hubs and rear adapters worked perfect.

ok just some info. that I have found out about useing hummer rims.

One I have seen a guy running them on a single wheel d60 but he did not have hi stearing. It just fit by about 1/2 in. This was pic off of the PPR board. So it can be done.

Are you getting the run flats with them? If you are not I would not even mess with them then. The run flat part is what makes them beadlocks.

Also there is a place that sale new weld in centers for hummer rims for 150 + the ride(I think that is the right price) I also seen that on the PPR board.

How much are you getting them for? Just wanted to see how cheap?

[jeepzilla47]

yeah the run flats come with them. you can also get the rubber insert to replace the magnesium piece from usa 6x6. i am getting 5 rims for 200 bucks. what is the ppr board? i talked to a local four wheel drive shop and they havent seen a hd 44 axle in a chevy duallie. he doesnt even think he can get the parts. he wants to get the eight lug hubs and add a two inch spacer to it. they say it will fit. ????????????? but by the time i buy the hubs, spacers, and rims, i would about be better off buying a set from usa 6x6 with a custom offset. any ideas????

84 gw in dire need of hummer rims!!!!!!!!!!!!
