Making 2 wd a 4 wd.

I have a 2 wheel drive 88 f450 dump with 7.3 non turbo. I also have a 97 ford f 350 4 wheel drive parts truck. I'm thinking of swapping the axels both front and rear from pick up to the Dump Truck. Both have 7.3 one is turbo one is not. Is this possible?

yes it is, but you will need to put lift springs in the rear, and you will have 2 different tires. 8 lug in front, and 10 lug in rear. unless you also swap the rear rear of the F-350 into your F-superduty. (it is not a F-450, they did not start making the F-450 till 1999)

I wanted to swap the Rear end also. Which will reace the Duel wheels. Can I just bolt up the Transfer case to my Tranny?

yes. remove the parking brake, bolt the transfer case on, and extend the parking brake cable to connect to the F-350 cables.
