I gave $75 for mine with F150 from the knuckles out! $450 Not a terrible price but you can do better! If going from a 30? that eases the pain.

That's a good deal. We usually get around $500 for a used drum brake D44 without any of the upgrades that one has. But sometimes they go on ebay and nobody bids at all, its just a matter of whether anyone needs one and happens to see the listing at the time you have it up. Yeah you can wait around for a killer deal to pop up like Nyles got but $450 is still a good price for what you described.

What is described is not a bad price, however most don't want to deal with shipping on these large items.

Definitely go for it if you need one and can go get/see it in person! Picking it up lets you know that the seller isn't trying to pull a fast one and that your getting what was advertised+thats really a good price for what you listed.

I see stock EB Dana 44s go for $300-$350 if drum and $600-$650 if disc. $450 for the D44 you describe is a steal to me.

I think the question is what is the average and Justino in my opinion gave a pretty good ball park.

He is my problem with these questions; everyone always has to tell you about the best deal they have ever gotten and then they wonder why they are contridicted 10 times.

I am off my soap box.

Wow, 600$ for a stock EB D44 disk axle. I don't think they would command that around here, but I know cali is always more........

400-450 for a stock 'as-is' EB disk 44 is about the norm around here..so 450 for one that is ready to go ouwld be a good deal here too.

The HP D44s go for less in stock full-width condition...300 is typical.

Exactly. I seem to see disc 44s in the classifieds all the time for around $400, but they are 2000 miles away %)

I paid $150 for one a couple of weeks ago. It was a little rough and was drums , but I am going to replace everything in it any way.And I could pick it up.

“No Brainer” if you are close enough to pick it up yourself and were looking for a nice 44.

Early Ford Bronco Dana 44 front axle. This axle has a 4.11 gear ratio. It has been professionally rebuilt. It has disc brake kit installed and comes with proportioning valve(little brown box). It has been sitting for about two or two and a half years. Thats why there is a little film of rust on rotors and hubs and axles(they are new). It is out of my 74 bronco. the bolt pattern is 5 on 5 1/2. The disc brake kit is new, along with the axles, ring and pinion, hubs and cover. the steering knuckles are from a 78*79 bronco or f-150 modified to work. I bought the disc brake kit from toms bronco. Also the ball joints are new. There are no junk yard parts, nor any chevy parts. The width is 60 inches.
