Can you use a GM10 bolt front axle in the rear for rear steering?? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I'm contemplating adding a rear steering hydraulic ram kit to my 81 GMC K1500 shortbed. I have an extra GM10 bolt front axle from a 75 GMC 1/2 ton and was wondering if I could flip the axle and use it in the rear? Has anyone done this? I know there are other rear axles that I could buy that are already set up for rear steering but I'm on a budget and just want to know if that 10 bolt front axle will work in the rear.

Thanks everybody.
