Leafs will be easier to swap that axle over, and your front axle in your 67' will be a closed knuckle dana 44.

thanks for the reply mustange70.someone must have swapped frt axle because it's an open knuckle,high pinion, drum brake set-up.it just looks kinda spindly.I'm running 37" hummer tires on it(16.5x13.50x37)I goes pretty well in mud,but with those tires I know my axles are on borrowed time.hence the swap question.thanks again.

Dave
