So I have a chance to get a set of front and rear D60 full width axles for free from my brother. Well actually I'd be trading a '79 f250 for them. But when he bought them from a friend years ago they had just been rebuilt, and have been sitting in his garage under a work bench for all these years.
I'm wondering if I did the swap, would my 4.0 and 5 speed be able to turn 36's or bigger? If so what kind of gearing would i need? I can make it a flat towed or trailer truck and pull it with my ram so getting it to the trail is not an issue. I've got about 200k on the engine and it seems to do ok with 33's and 3.73's now...
