I had this SAS S10 project on the back burner for way too long but I am making good progress now. The donor D44 I got has detroit locker, moeser chromo shafts w/ctm joints. It needed high steer arms so I got chevy flat top knuckles, spindles, caliper brackets+calipers and using ford hub/rotors so wheel bolt pattern matches rear axle.
Got it almost together and I cant get the snap ring on the stub shaft..... forgot I need chevy stub shaft too and still need locking hubs. So now I need to get that stub shaft. What should I go with for that outer shaft? Chromo or no? Moeser.. yukon.. something cheap? I am on the fence about the hubs... go drive flange or no? And now I have to press these ctm joints out of the shaft... that gonna be a PITA or what?
I like the idea of having the hubs being the weak link but if I go with drive flanges this thing will be pretty stout
