which 4WD axle in 47-55 stock frame

Has anyone mounted an unmodified solid front 4x4 axle in a 1947 to 1955 truck using stock spring location?
PM me with pictures and post axle type and engine sitting on top of it.

i want to find a 4wd/4x4 front axle that has a WMS distance of 60" +/- 1" that will fit in my frame.
frame has spring center distance of 26" in width so pumpkin cant be wider than 13" from center of axle...
dont think i care which side as i can find whichever transfer case to work with it. i will be running chevy 700R4 and unknown trasnfer case(TBD after axle)

will be using stock leaf springs on fabbed mounts. may go spring-under for a lower stance. clearance not an issue.

want 3.30-3.42 ratio.

do NOT want to cut any axle and want at least 11" brakes. i have 2 sets of 3/4ton axles to cut but i want somthing i dont have to cut for future replacement(expect thsi sub to go over 400k miles in my life.
thanks
Mark
