axles

[tnt40]

Can I put a set of 78 fj55 axles under a 62 fj40? The 40 already has an older 2f and a 4spd in it. I would like to take the entire drive train out of the 55 and put into the 40. Give me your infinite knowledge Oh cruiser tech board.

outta be a piece of cake...the only issue I forsee is brake upgrades and perhaps some hardline routing.

also get a rebuild kit, never know what you get unless you know the person your getting it from

Direct drop in except for clutch slave routing, motor mounts and maybe flanges. If you have both trucks very easy to do.

teapot. rebuild kit for what?

 

[woody]

if the axle is unknown to you, a knuckle rebuild kit is a worthwhile investment....$80-100 and good practice anyways. Easy to do prior to install.

marlincrawler.com has them, cruiseroutfitters.com has them....
