Default Re: Rear Differential Type
OK good. First thing is to find an original diff. If it is from a person parting out a truck or chassis, cut off all the shock mounts, springs, spring mounts and anything else that is available from the person. Then we can talk about removing and replacing. I'm not sure if installing 6 lug axles is an option with the donor you have. Sooooooo...Just start searching for a Dana 44. With correct dimension from Wheel Mounting Surface to Wheel Mounting Surface. Take off the diff cover to read the ratio and check pinion and ring teeth for condition. Sell the 5 lug $$$
