if its kept stock or close to stock, axles that are way smaller than a d80 would be plenty sufficient.

Well I just bought my candidate for the DT(A)360 swap!!!!

1975 F350 Crew cab!!!!!!!!!!!! Stock 4x4 with the independent transfer case. Has the ford 460 with a granny 4 speed. All interior has been redone and is up to par. gauges work. Motor is about a 5 year old crate, truck has sat for 2 years so looks a lot older than it is. Straight from Ford, has sticker still on it and everything. 4x4 works with the manual locking hubs in the front, has power steering, electric fuel pump, etc, etc… Has 2 rust holes.. VERY FIXABLE!!! all in the bed of the truck and its along the fender wells as usual.. most of it is primed and ready for paint with a little bit of surface rust. nothing major. Frame is solid! shocks, bushings, etc need to be replaced.

It runs and moves and shifts, just no brakes . applying for Florida title as it is from Wyoming so hopefully that goes well. Ttitle was lost and gentleman past away and truck got impounded and sat on the lot for past month but sat in a lot for 2 years at a body shop!! go figure.

BEST PART ABOUT IT!!! PAID $450!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the motor alone will sell for $300 and the drive train for another $400! I can scrap it for at least $500 if i wanted to . It's a dream come true!

It is already here, the guy who had owned it before had moved to Florida from there and never transferred the title.

Here is a link of it. I have some pics up and the history or at least more in depth description and what not. Will try to keep you guys posted but refer to this link for anything on the future build. Thx
