There is a company here that will sel you a dana44 w/ all the needed goodies as a kit. They are called Exotic Muscle. A quick google search will show you the way.

Yeah to save stuffing around, get the driveshaft and c-beam from a 6 speed car. The c-beam from a DANA 36 is 15/16ths of an inch longer than the DANA 44 c-beam. You can drill new holes as Bogus says, but if you have the correct part to start with, its a straight out with the old, and straight in with the new. Much easier.
