I am not sure about the open knuckle dana 44 with drums, but for my closed knuckle dana 44 on my 1967 K20, the Raybestos 2008R drums were a fit. I did have to drill out the lug holes and ream them as I have upgraded the studs to 9/16" but the drums themselves fit over the shoes perfectly. I believe that this drum was used on 1950's Chevy 3/4 tons, but I am not 100%.
