I could download it, but it wouldn't do me any good.  I'm an English
person, not math...:-)

Forgot about those!  Good idea, if I can afford it.

Needs at least a 1 inch body lift to have any margin for error.  I don't
want to do a body lift.  I would eventually like 33s, though.

Thanks for the comments, Bob.  I was wondering if anyone other that Tom had
an opinion on my question.  Gee, you ask guys to dream a little with you
and they ignore you!! <BG>

HOW WOULD YOU BUILD A DANA 44?  I need to go from the knuckles out with all
new pieces!!  Swap to Ford rotors and calipers?  Stick with Scout II stuff?
Let me hear from you!!
