Re: In need of some axles

Will these two axles line right up with the current leaf springs? How do I know what width to be looking for?

YEP ITS A DIRECT BOLT IN. TRY GOVERNMENT LIQUDATION AUCTION SITE. THATS THE BEST PLACE TO BUY THEM. ALSO IF YOU GET A WHOLE TRUCK YOU CAN SWAP EVERYTHING FROM 1 TON SPRINGS, WHEELS, TIRES,DRIVESHAFTS TH400 TURBO WITH NP208 T-CASE ETC

Re: In need of some axles

What are you planning on doing with it?

I got some 1/2ton axles out of a late 70s chevy with discs up front and open knuckles, If your not gonna be wheeling with it, then the 1ton stuff is a little overkill and a military truck will have 4.56 gears in it. If you are gonna run under a 35" tire that will be a little too much gear. I got 36" tires on my 67' and 3.73 gear ratio that works out nice for street use.

Re: In need of some axles

Im not gonna be doing any wheeling with it, Im just looking for some replacements as the current ones are pretty rusted. So any of the dana 60s will fit the front? IT seems that some of them must be wider, because the dana 60 on my f250 is way wider than would ever fit under the chevy.
