Quick Question about 1 ton 4x4 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hey guys,

On a recent junk yard hunt, I found a complete 1 ton, crew cab 4x4. It is a late 70's or early 80's truck. the body is shot, but the axles look good. I am seriously considering buying them. The front axle is a Dana 60. the rear is a 14bff. It is a full time 4x4. My question is, will this axle bolt into my 72 Jimmy? are there any locking hub kits for it, or can a full time axle be changed over to a part time axle? I want to keep my NP 205, so I can disengage the front axle, but I also want to be able to unlock them. any help would be great. I need to hurry though, I am sure that truck wont be there for long.
