What Front Axle is This: 1972 K20
It is on a 1972 K20 4x4.
Picture was from an e-bay listing from quite a while ago.

Re: What Front Axle is This: 1972 K20
Definately looks stout. Almost looks like a center section of an irs front made into solid axle. But most of the irs cases are aluminum. Never seen one like that either.

Re: What Front Axle is This: 1972 K20
Unfortunately all I saved was the axle and the spid picture from that listing.
The spid has all the usual options you see on them. Nothing unique about it. I wish I could remember what it had for lockouts. But if it wasn't the standard big hub spicers, I would have probably saved a picture of that to go with the axle. It's one Frankenstein built axle I think.

Re: What Front Axle is This: 1972 K20
Looks like a front axle out of some piece of equipment. I've seen one of those before, trying to remember what it was in...

Re: What Front Axle is This: 1972 K20
Thanks for posting over at pirate4x4... hopefully someone recognizes it....
It was ebay listing number 330618652885 from October 2011. No google results for that listing number.

Re: What Front Axle is This: 1972 K20
Who? I said it was the only picture I had, and that it "was"(past tense) from an ad. Seems self explanatory to me.
