I am going through a Dana 44.  I have shafts out and want to replace the seals.  The bearings look great.  The seals are available, but I need to get the bearing retainer sleeve.  It is the type that must be cut or drilled and chiseled off and therefore not reusable. 

 

$20 seems expensive for a darn bearing retainer.  Anyone know of a cheaper source?

Thanks.  Found this $9.89.  Order $75 of stuff and get free shipping:  http://www.4wheelparts.com/Drivetrain-Differential/Axle-Bearing-Retaining-Ring.aspx?t_c=12&t_s=514&t_pt=7893&t_pn=CRO83503077

 

Also found them on Rockauto under part #1656038 for $6.95.  Shipping for 1-7 is $10.99.  Shipping for 8-11 is $5.99.  Kinda weird.

 

Will have to do some more comparisons, adding in seals, and I am thinking of stocking up on the retainers for the future projects, to find the best deal.

I am having trouble finding kit for mine as I want to replace the bearing, seal and retainers all the listings on ebay are for newer 44`s or older 35`s some say they interchange?
