What year is it? Does it have locking hubs, or 'full time 4x4'? I have no idea if they changed designs over the years of Ramcharger production, but my '76 wasn't all that hard to do. Just take it apart, slide the bearings out, and new ones in and reassemble.

locating a spindle shouldn't be difficult. A lot of guys will almost give the full time d44's away because they swap it out for the more favorable part time axle or the d60. There is a YouTube video that shows how to change the bearings.

There was a kit to convert to Hubs.I did mine on my 79 Ramcharger.The kit was in a 73 I bought.Ther was a bearing you had to install in the case also.Been like 25 years since I did the swap though.I know if the knuckles are even a bit bad they will eat new bearings.had to replace one set twice.Then i got a good used knuckle.Rocky
