I sure have looked a lot found very little for what I want to do. I first was going to use Toyota axles, then Wagoneer axles. But since I have this good GMC set I figure I should shorten them like the Jeep guys do and use what I already got.

Pretty much all of the 47-55.1 4wd builds I've seen have axles that are too wide for my taste. The tires stick way out and it's not what I'm going for. Here's a pic close to what I'm hoping to wind up with. Rick
