Who in town drills and taps dana 44 flat top knuckles for hi steering now days Try Summit, or Ben Hanks Racing... probably Mt. Logan as well?

Where can I buy spring perches, steering arms, drive lines made, after a set of RANCHO 44044 springs also...4WP, talk to Bear. Only 1-stop shop I can think of that might fit the bill. Six States or Gaylon's for the driveline though.

Actually now that I'm thinking of it, Ben Hanks might be able to get you most of that too.... worth a visit to find out, they always have sexy projects going on.


who has the best prices in town? That depends on what you need, when you need it, who you ask

Check out these guys http://www.ksl.com/index.php?nid=218&ad=9933675&cat=&lpid=2&search=dana%2044 I don't know what all they offer but I'm sure they can mill and tap some knuckles and you could get your steering arms from them as well.

I called summit machine and they quoted me $850 to mill, drill and tap my flat top knuckle.. and so I just bought a brand new one from Reid Racing Monday and it showed up to my doorstep today! I paid $219.

holy crap $850? I pay $45 plus shipping, which works out to around $75 per knuckle.

Reeeaaallly. I can't for the life of me imagine why they would quote you that ridiculous price. But now I want to know... I'm gonna have to call them.

They charge me 30 bucks.

the lady at Summit said that the machines that they have aren't ideal for doing that and it is a pain in the butt for them.. unless she just misunderstood what it was that I was wanting.. Oh well, I'm glad to have a brand new knuckle.

I'm no machinist, but I would think end mills rock for doing that.

at any rate, the Reid stuff is sweet..

Thanks for the tips !!! Thats a sweet looking knuckle for 219.00, come with studs, ball joints, etc?

How used and abused are the Rancho's? Do you have and 52" or 56" chevy springs?

These are going under a driver "pavement pounder sorta thing"...

I have (4) 44044's I ran them in all four corners of my Jeep when I was on springs and the rears got bent a couple of times, and are now clamped, so probably not so great...but the fronts never had any problems, so I probably have two good ones out of the four, on the rears only the Main leaves got bent. they are 44044's and I ran the rears backwards so as to stretch the wheel base.(offset center pin). also have some heavy duty shackles too.
