Default Ring and Pinion Specifications D44

Does anybody know the ring gear diameter of the D44 and how many teeth are on it? Obviously the 3.45 ratio dictates the ratio of teeth between then ring and pinion so if you know one you can figure out the other.

I've got a gear modeling program that I'm trying to mess with but without the dimensions it's kinda pointless. Information about the ring gear diameter, thickness, etc would be great. A blueprint would be fantastic.

Thanks. I found a site with some ring pinion ratio info that helps as well.
