Another thing is that there are different thickness retaining rings for the D44.... They are how you control stub shaft end play..... Your current retaining rings may be too thick to work in the new Tru Trac. You can figure this out by sliding the stub shaft in and measuring the amount of the shafts retaining groove is sticking through the side gear with feeler gauges and comparing that measurement with how thick your retaining ring is.

I usually have the snap ring expanded inside the case with the pliers, then slid the axle into the ring.

I had to use thinner snap rings on the side shafts when I switched to the Tru-Trac. Got them from Tom's

I get what you all are saying. I mean the snap ring won't even sit down into the housing fully.
