If your truck is 2wd, (that's what it looks like in the pic), you can go to the parts store and buy two new front rotors for a dually and you will get your front hubs, because the 2wd hub and rotor are one piece.

That is interesting information, but she will be getting a dana 60 hopefully. The cheapest I have found one yet is 750 bucks. Just found it today on craigslist. No info posted to it other than its a dana 60 high pinion out of a 97. I emailed him asking what the gear ratio is, and the shape its in. Have yet to hear back. I figure I can get a DRW rear axle for 100-200 bucks.
I was planning to run timkin bearings and races, but it seams as though you guys trust spicer a bit more. I dont know enough to say one is better than the other. I do know they are both high quality.

Maybe down there you can get a dually axle that cheap. Up here they are 600+
The better sterling 10.25 axle is the long pinion one

might want to figure that one again after you look around for a few first.you could probably source a srw or even a cab and chassis axle that cheap on a good day but the drw pickup axles go for 7-900 range.
I'll be getting the DRW rear end out of the junk yard. Have a friend who owns a salvage yard, so I shouldn't have to big of an issue finding one. I have him looking for a donor truck for me right now, but as of yet the exact set up I want probably wont roll through there.
That one is probably a Cab and chassis model, and if that is the case, the rear axle will be to narrow for your truck. I don't believe Ford offered that truck with a pickup bed.
That would be an issue. I could still come out well on it though. That is assuming the only issue is the engine. Has a nice dump bed on it. I could make my money back on the truck parting it out.
I think if the rear axle is going to be my only problem its worth the investment for as cheap as I can get it. Hope I'm not wrong
I asked for a picture of the front axle, and vin. Said it might take him a couple days. Cant really tell, but this is the picture he had posted on his listing.
On second thought the axle looks to be in two pieces on the right side..............Still cant tell for certain.
also don't forget you need a sterling with the ring tone in the rear (which started around 1989 or so i believe) for your speedo to work in the 9th gen trucks.absolute requirement for those with E4OD trans.
though pre-'93 sterling (short yoke) axles may be less desirable as pointed out by Brad,they are the only ones with 3.55 gearing in the drw pickup form.the update is mainly important for those who run large tires.if your looking for a pickup axle with 4.10's then just get the 93-97 drw pickup axle.they're easy to find in the yards all over the us.....they just cost $ lol.the freight shipping isn't horrendous,so you can pick one up with ease.

If the front isn't a dana 60 I wont buy it, but if it is I can make my money back on it selling the bed alone, and would give me a new cab for my 85 trail rig. Its the only complete donor truck I've found yet that I wont be loosing money on. If not I may have to pony up the dough for a pulled dana 60.
I didnt think about the speed sensor, but I could get by with out it. Think my transfer case has a speed sensor in it if I remember correctly. Pulled it out of my 1980 before I got rid of it.
Unfortunately it keeps looking like this truck is to good to be true. SRW front end, and it looks like the right side of the axle is riding a bit higher than the left, indicating it is could be a TTB front end.
