welcome towcat already knows we in the rust belt hate you cali guys and your pretty rust free trucks.
but the fsd thing wouldnt be too hard to do
measure the frame it should be the same as a fsd being chassie cab and all.
if so rear axle will bolt up
the driveline brake will need the cable from the fsd but pedal should interchange
front axle could be trickier towcat can comment on the differences all he needs to do is look out the window im sure he got both sitting there.
but it shouldnt take much either
and starting fluid is fine long as the gps are disconnected i did this for 2 years and now am runing plugs again
check compression the motor may just have a few bad injectors or even need head gaskets
good luck
Yes, unfortunately...you have to pull the axleshaft to get the drum off.i just hate drums and e-brakes.. are these dana 70 brake drums inboard like the dodges?

not all dana 70s
I'd love nothing more than to switch to disc rear brakes, but have yet to find a reasonable solution for the E-brake (since I'm a 4x4, I can't bolt in a driveshaft parking brake)...I know that some calipers have an E-brake built in, but from what I've heard, it doesn't really do the job. IIRC late '90's E-series vans have disc rear brakes with a baby drum brake inside that serves as a parking brake (Mercedes did the same thing with at least their older cars with 4-wheel disc brakes)...might be something to look further into?![]()
My 91 F-Super duty has the stock Dana 80 with disc brakes, 5.13 gears and 10 lug rims.![]()

Oh, and those rims on your truck aren't really worth anything...I'd be happy to take them off your hands for you![]()
Seriously, welcome aboard![]()
i know they pull great but i hate the high revs. i drove a 97 PSD super duty hooklift with a built auto and 5.13s. my first gen cummins with 3.07s and a 3 speed was just as fast as it. but that thing could pull a loaded trailer with a loaded debris box
can you put a gear vendors on the back of a SD zf5?
Woudl love to hear more details on that...do you remember the website by chance? Do they sell brake kits for other transfer cases (I have a BW 13-45)? How much weight can they reliably hold?i bought a NP205 t-case ebrake kit from a company online. they are based in the Sacramento area.. works great
I don't think you can feasibly put a GV unit on, but if you found a Doug Nash/U.S. Gear unit meant for a 4x4, you should be able to put it between the tranny and the E-brake assembly on the SD (since the SD tranny's identical to a 4x4 pickup tranny from a mounting standpoint; I have a tranny out of an F-Superduty on my 4x4 F-250can you put a gear vendors on the back of a SD zf5?
