D-44 from Sc0ut in YJ?
A wheeling buddy of mine is a collector of Scouts and recently had one
burn up so the rear D-44 is available. I know they are 1 3/4" narrower
than the D-35, which is not a big deal, but the 5 on 5.5 is a problem.
Can these be redrilled to 5 on 4.5? What about brakes? I'd like to keep
the 11" drums, or convert to disk. Any ideas about the computability of
the outer wheel assemblies of the optional TJ D-44 and this one?
Thanks,

You can have the flanges and drums drilled to 5x4.5 for about $50.
Another option is a set of spacer/adapters for about $100 to adapt to
5x4.5 and match your front track too. Better yet, convert the front 30
to locking hubs with 5x5.5 or fit a front 44 from a bronco, scout, or ford.

Sell the scout axle to a CJ owner who can use it easier. Then you go
shopping for a 8.8 from an explorer.
