83 f150 solid axle conversion
I just need some advice pictures on some of the things i would have to do to get rid of the ifs n swap to 78 front solid axle d44. More of a budget build. Looking to swap so i can lift without having the problem of the toed front wheels. The truck has my old faithful 300 attached to a c6 3 speed. Any help will be greatly appreciated thanks

This guy has a lot of info on the early axles. Keep searching, you can probably find someone who modified the axle to fit our trucks.

This swap is not that easy if I remember correctly. Not like putting a dana 60 into a f250 is easy. You may find the proper lift kit being the cheaper way to go and definitely easier to get some lift with a kit.
