Hello everyone,
This is my first post. I'm building an 85 Bronco II. I want to swap in a dana 35 front axle. I have a D35 out of a 92 Ranger. My research says the 95-97 Ranger D35 is the one I want because it has the twin piston calipers and thicker disk. I'm having trouble finding a D35 out of a 95-97 Ranger. My question is: Is the only difference between a 95-97 "hybrid" D35 front axle assembly and a regular D35 axle assembly the third member? Or put another way can I just swap my D35 third member into "hybrid" front axel assembly? My research here alludes to the fact that the third member maybe the only difference but I want to be sure before I spent my $. There seems to be a lot more "hybrid" axles available and cheaper too. Thanks in advance for your help.
