Axles and Decisions

Hey guys well I have the opportunity for some 07 axles. Everything needed to make my 2000 4x4 coil springs. Getting a great deal. He said he would give me the rear as well pretty much if I'll get the whole frame out of his yard.
I mean free stuff is the best but anything gained installing this? I already have the spring swa in the rear.

Thanks,
shaw.

Swapping in the newer rear would keep your axle widths the same front/rear allowing for the same wheel offset/backspacing. If only the front was done then you could run the later model rims without need of spacers but then would need them on the rear as those would be too far inward by 1.75" or so.
I say swap them both, what ratio are they vs what you now have? Is your EX gas or deezle? (Fill in you signature to let folks know on every post )

I'd contact Cary at CT Performance and talk with him- he's done that swap + others and knows what to watch for...
