    They came from a flanged 44 but you can drill the top two holes and use them just fine.

    A flanged 44 uses one piece axles vs. the two piece axles of the tapered axle 44. They use a different axle bearing and housing because of that. The flanged housing has a bolt pattern that matches the backing plates shown on the left. The center hole is also larger on the flanged axle backing plates but that doesn't affect you.
