Dana 44 or GM 10 bolt - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Quick question:

I have a Dana 44 front end on my 67. It was added by PO. He wanted disc brakes I assume.

It is bent, along with the GM 12 bolt rear axle.

I have been offered what I assume is a GM 10 bolt and GM 12 bolt out of a 69 Blazer, both are good, and the front axle is suppose to have discs.

Should I take them or is the Dana 44 so much better it is worth fixing?

No matter what I will go through them before they are installed, and my axle guy says it is no problem to straighten the axles.

What do you think?
