Newb axle question.
Can I bolt up the hubs of a Dana 44 front axle with out the shafts? I'm doing a rebuild and plan on dropping it off. I only need to roll the housing to the shop. So can I put on the knuckles, hubs and wheels on with out shafts or drive shafts and still be able to roll it 20 miles?

Look at this thread to see how it is made, and why it doesn't need the stub and nut as in the past.
