Default Source for Dana 44 stub axles?

Found a pair of Dana 44 rear ends for sale locally. Haven't gone to see them in person, but im assuming from the photos they would need rebuild. The stub shafts in particular look a bit rusty. (Thanks michigan salt)

A lot of the other replacement parts it looks like I can find, but most of the links I see on here for stub axles are long dead. Is there anyone who still supplies these? Trying to judge whether these would be a good candidate for a rebuild or if it's ultimately cheaper to find one in good shape.

I have a couple of pair of L/R NOS 'short axles' for the D44. I've not decided when to actually offer them. These came from Newman Car Creations - he and I shared an order several years ago, he was looking and we discussed the buy. $$$ I've not decided either - Newman and I paid several $$$ for these.
