that axle ha s 27 spline. you need one from 97+. otherwise its not much better than the 35 other than a larger housing.

Quote: is the D44 the same width as the stock or is that wider?
the d44 is the same width as the stock and it is a direct bolt in so you dont have to do much to get running again. The d44 is also a stronger axle the both the 8.25 and the d35 plus no c clips to worry about. heres a photo for comparison.

As far as the rear disc brake conversion. Its pretty simple to do. no more difficult then either of the other axles.
