Ford 9.75 in K10????

[jkade]

Anyone heard or though about swapping in a 9.75 from a newer F150? They are supposed to be pretty close to a dana 60 rear. I have broke 2 10 bolts in my 86 k10 and I am currently have a 3:73 front and a 3:08 rear end. I would just swap it over to a 14bolt but I love my factory rally wheels and don't want to part with them. I am getting ready to pull the truck apart and do a frame off and put a 5.3 or a 6.0 in it so I wanna upgrade the rear end while I am at it.
