If you google 05 axle swap it's becoming a pretty common axle swap plus it offers a great ride and heavier axles than even factory obs Dana 60s

Day I picked it up. Owner said it was tow worthy. Since I was solo I had to borrow a truck and trailer and tow back with the new to me F350 since the 150 likely wouldn't be up to the task legally. The truck had virtually 0 brakes left, and really sloppy steering. Was a long stressful trip back.

Blowing rock NC. That road turned to gravel farther up the mountain. Glad my 4x4 worked. The grade was too steep for 2 wheel drive. Rented a house, and not too sure how they expect people in regular cars to get there. In fact a crew cab long bed almost didn't make some of the turns.

In Early June I should have a tow picture with a loaded 2 car trailer I'm picking up. Have not scrolled through all 46 pictures. Is there a dedicated picture thread for what you're towing. Would be great to look at the set ups. I saw a few in the historical pages I clicked on in this link.

My 97 f350 4x4 with a manual trans I got a while back. I did the 2.25 rsk with super duty springs, 315 toyo muds, Tony wildman tunes, 4" straight pipe also added the cab lights too.

If you're looking to put one on your truck, Jose, more pics of his won't help you. His is built into the PMF RSK. Since your truck is a 2wd, an RSK is not an option.
