The FNG
NOT a Powerstroke!
I've been reading pretty extensively on the Dana 60 swap for the front end of my 94 IDIT F250 extended cab 4x4. I've been able to locate an 86 cclb F350 IDI 4x4 (kingpin) with the motor in pieces that they guy gave up on. If I'm not mistaken, this should be a pretty straightforward swap. I was hoping to just unbolt the axle from my truck at the leafs and roll it out while doing the same from the F350. I know there's more to it, but that's the basic plan. The main concerns I have are the drive shaft and the brake lines. Will there be any issues there?
Next, I wanted to swap the rear axles because I have 3.55's and the F350 has 4.10's, so I figured it would be easier to just swap out the axle than to buy a new set of gears and install them. Again, concern is brake lines. Also, this truck is a manual and I don't believe it came with ABS (I'm not sure). Do I need to worry about the speed sensor or whatever goes in the rear diff? I have an E4OD and the F350 has a 4-speed.
Is there anything I'm missing? It comes with a lift on it, so I can grab the pitman arm as well.
