    Is anyone still making axles to convert my offset tapered D44 to flanged? I called Moser and they said they didn't make them.

    Or, is my best bet the full floater kit from Herm?

    Thanks,
    David

    From my experience - the FF is the best option right now. Make sure of the spline count you want first (for lockers and such) before locking into one.

    Now we just need to pester Nick enough to get him to do the write up so there will be a 30 spline option :)

    Nick - I'll even proof and help with pics and such :)

    Scott Milner had Summers Brothers make some flanged axles for his tapered housing.
    Search for his thread.

    I think Herm is offering a kit now as well.

    Summers Brothers was the other folks I had heard of, but from Scott's thread it seems they are not working out too well.

    Did Warn used to offer this?

    Yup - I have a set on my '51. Looking for another set as an option or looking to build a set as I have a buddy that wants to put OX Lockers in his as well. I used to be a cheaper solution than a custom axle, now I am not sure.
