Dana 44 and 10 bolt from the 'square body' will bolt right up (just did it myself). Unless you are hard core offroader, both will be fine. 10 bolt is considered a bit stronger BTW.

Just wait and find one with the gear ratio you want. If you were considering regearing, that would be the time though. Rear axles from square bodies are not bolt in however, the spring and shock mounts must be moved.
