Post by: hollywoodhillbilly on November 10, 2013, 03:42:58 AM
Could you do a sas on these and put an old style drive train and axles in these and have everything work right. Id like to put a gm dana 60 and 14 bolt front and rear axles a 454 bbc a th400 trans and a 205 transfer case in one

yes that can be done...............its just that the cheapest route is using a ford front axle to maintain your current driver side drop t-case and trans.

Yup,  everything will work just fine.  Put 60 front, 14 rear, 406-400/208 in it.  I eliminated lots of wires under the hood too.  Everything works great!

I read the post clearly................his original post didn't mention anything about  already "having" those parts...........and I assumed that he didn't.

If your donor truck..... (88-98 truck) already has EFI...........do you plan on swapping that out for a carb'ed motor??

Youd be better with crossover steering anyway itll handle way better.
