$DAY 1: I just finished scrapping my old 96 yesterday. I have parts laying EVERYWHERE and they need to be used ASAP. The rear axle was the biggest part and not easy to store so it gets swapped im first. Plus my old one im selling to a friend who needed it quickly for his project to save time I left the axle, shocks, swaybar, leafsprings, and even wheels all together and just unbolted the leafs from the shackle and disconnect everything else. rolled the old out and new in and reattached. The new axle is a Dana 60 Semi-Floating out of a ~2000 E-250. it has factory 4.10 gears, disk brakes, and is about 4\\" wider than a normal axle. Because it came out of my 96 Bronco, I already welded on new spring perches with corrected pinion angle (no more factory angle block needed), have a custom driveshaft, swaybar modified, and brakes setup for easy install. I LOVE THIS AXLE, was the best upgrade I did on that truck and hope it will still be as good on this. The leaf springs are from a ~92-96 F250. they are stronger than the stock ones, bolt right in place, and add a 2-3 inches of lift. I do have 3 inch blocks (yes I know everybody hates blocks) with some very heavy duty U-bolts. for all the time they were on my old 96 and jumped for soo long I never had a slightest problem so I kept them. the 2-3 inches of lift from the F250 leafs and the 3 inch block means I have somewhere around 5 to 6 inches of lift. That\\'s all I need as this truck is not more of a general purpose trail truck than only a mudtruck.$ ‹ ›
