Dorman made a 1/2 stud that would fit the Dana 44 at one time but it was discontinued. I’ve heard there are ones that fit but I don’t know the part number. 12 bolt is the easy swap. I would like to swap out to the 1/2” myself but wish I could find what fits. I would be willing to drill the hub if needed. If you go through the work to remove the hub I would try to get 1/2 studs since you’re in there. It’s a little work to reset the preload and everything when doing the job. It’s also good measure to just go ahead and replace the bearings and races if it’s original. They are cheap and not hard to do.
