I do not thinkit would be in anyone's better interest to post pictures of the Dana 44 mocked up in our L110. We have retired that Jeep Grande Wagoneer D44s to a storage rack. The axles will ultimately go for a quick sale.
Installing a driven front axle is a matter of finding that happy, non-contact place where the differential centre section does not make contact with the engine or the frame. This can leave the only option of going up. If you use the OEM springs on the top of a Dana 4X4 front axle, this will naturally cause the front of your truck to be higher than it was on the OEM dropped axle. Spring compression and axle travel can be limited by bump stops

If a person is not ready to add a transfer case and all that goes with it, your truck can be driven as a two wheel drive.
New Process Gear made transfer cases for The Big Three and others. My Cummins Dodge has a 241dld, my son's L110 had a 241c and Ford used the 241. My son's Jeep Wrangler had a lighter duty version of the 241.
There must be a million NVG 241 in the recycling yards. (wrecking yard) Parts are inexpensive and readily available. I found our 241c on Craigslist for $150. I bought my repair parts at a local auto parts store.
There are lots of options available to shorten your 241 and or adapt it to other applications.

I may be buying a SYE kit from JB Conversions. The rear driveshaft in my son's L110 may be short enough to need the extra length that a SYE can give.
