It Is me Again
 
A major swap on the horizon

Swap from L6 292 to 300 V8
From manual transmission NP435 to automatic transmission TH400
From 2wd to 4x4.

With my rear end 14 FF 8 Lug can I fit D44 in front….?
What a low gear (T-Case) should i fit
And how to mach axle teethes?

Tell me more about this "300" V8 you have, I've never herd of one.
Wouldn't you be losing torque with that engine swap?

I think there is a section for 4x4 questions.

Since you have a heavy duty 14 FF I would go with a Dana 60 front. Your rear gears are most likely 4:10 but check just to make sure you get the same up front.

Re: It Is me Again
 
so Dana 60 is better.... where to find such axle
on 3/4?
