Does this exist....

A ford dana 44 knuckle, internal lockouts, WITH a two hole steering arm (like seen on the scout 44)?

I want to move to internal hubs, keep 5 on 5.5, and try to keep the steering I have now--on the passenger side i have the tie rod in one hole, drag in the other (sounds like a sweet porno). Flat top or not.
 
I think I could get by with a setup like this and just use one hole.

I have never seen a Ford knuckle with 2 holes cast into it. If you need factory knuckles, I have spare set I need to get rid of. Let me know quick since I will be out of town coming up here pretty quick.

I may be an idiot, but can't you just change hubs and maybe spindles, and keep the knuckles you have now?
 
They are 1 ton GM. I stole the pic after a buddy found it.

I am running stock scout 44's, which uses a 8-bolt style spindle compared to the common 5 bolt. So if I change something, then I need everything from the knuckle out including the stub shaft.

If I wanted to run flat tops as well, then i'd need to mismatch GM and Ford. But at this point I'd rather have internals than flat tops.

Warn makes a new short hub that replaces the stock scout, and stock jeep dana 30 hub, but its $370.

So I think I'd need to find a complete ford 44, or start collecting parts.
