ive seen these for 10 bolts, 12 bolts and dana 60's. does anyone know who sells these or if one for a d44 is even available?

to clarify if someone doesn't know what i'm talking about this allows me to use my numerically low detroit with my 4.10 gears (and spacer) without buying a set of "thick" gears or getting a detroit with the correct carrier brake

They sold Deloreans too, and we all know how that turned out. BTW, has anybody heard they are making new ones out of old parts in Houston now. :D

ring gear is concentric around the OD of the carrier,spacers dont have a lip to extend the centering too, and they might not be perfectly flat either.

Thick gears are out there for this reason. Look for rubicon gears that someone is getting rid of if you want to be cheap, those are thick 4.10s but you will have to enlarge the bolt holes on the detroit.
