    From the research that I have done, the rear axle is wider than a CJ. I would look a Herms kit or build your own. Here is a great post about building a full floater 44 with one piece flanged shafts. This is what I did. and made it match my Rotor 44 front for width.

    So what is the WMS to WMS distance for a Roxor Dana 44 front end?
    Because I've already have a front end that is 60" WMS to WMS and I can modify the spare rear 44 that I have to use there full floater kit.

    It’s gotta be hella close to the NT D30. Within an inch or so I’d guess.

    I always figured that front would make for a hot swap candidate.

    Looking at the photos, that kit will require removing the spindles for the axle install and looks to use the Set 47/Set 45 bearings-or perhaps some metric equivalent. The reduction in shaft diameter for the 27 spline drive flanges is what sanity check was really all about That and the price isn't any cheaper than what one can put together themselves. I found an original pair of Dana D30 disc brake hubs on flebay for $45, the one piece Dutchman moly shafts were about $400 for the pair, the custom 4340 jpet spindles $300 and I'm certain the bearings, fasteners (all ARP 8740) and seals didn't come anywhere close to the $400 difference. Another case of no free lunch.

    This is what I'm doing. Except I'm using a set of brakes from Sam at Partsdude, I also had Jeff to make a spacer to bring the axel to the same width as a Roxor front 44.
