front end swap, need input

There's a guy whose semi-local to me selling a complete front end for a '64 1/2 ton f100. (I beam axle, springs, shackles, steering, rebuilt king pins, disc brake conversion) He installed it about a year ago, but says he's going in another direction with his rebuild. Anybody have opinion as to whether this wil fit on my '59 f100? Its a pretty good deal, but I'm a little nervous about spending out of budget for something the "might" work.

The only difference I know if in these axles is that the later axle has the shock mount holes on the axle where as the 57-60's do not.

All other measurements are the same
