if you know ppl good enough at welding and fabricating stuff save your money buy some dana 60s and make your own brackets

that i do talked to him today said if i get axles he will do the rest owns a off road shop about 30 miles from here....i still feel violated mike!

Mike

hahahahahah i take it it wasnt a hot chick? and do it. get 1 ton axles with some 4.56s or buy the gears and do it yourself

Look on craigslist and in junkyards for Super Duty axles. Just be sure the front is a D60 and not a D50. I found a complete set (D60 & 10.5 from a wrecked '04 F-350 diesel) on CL in AZ about a year ago, already geared to 4.56 for $900. That's a smokin' deal around here.

That bronco graveyard kit looks pretty lame, with those link drop brackets being so low. If you actually go on the rocks with that you'd bend or break that **** in no time.

nice i found some axles a buddy has he has a dana 44 rear and a superduty front.. ima build the rear end up some though to beef it up..sound okay for a set up dont know exactly what the front is just know its a superduty axle he had the idea to do it on a bronco and never did so im going to by the whole lot and piece by piece get it goin!! any advice..FROADER

I wouldn't waste money on the 44 for the rear. Our axles are much stronger than those to start with. If the front axle is a D50 would work, but obviously the D60 is stronger and more desirable. Talk to the guy that owns the off-road shop and see what ideas he has for it and make sure you want what he's thinking of. You could link it, use radius arms or leaf springs. All depends on what style you and what kind of wheelin' you'll be doing.

well it aint nothing to major most just being a recovery vehicle.....for chevys,dodges,jeeps,some fords,gmc,occasional 18-wheeler...but i mostly want it for the look i love how the straight axle looks and out preforms and lasts front IFS dont get me worng my passion is my work and love doing all this to trucks but i am a newbie when it comes to dana..

If you are using a super duty front, you're going to want to get a super duty rear as well, or your bolt pattern on your rims won't match.

BTW, south texas rocks! I live an hour south of san antonio.
