bronco rear driveshaft angle
Will there be any serious driveshaft angle problems putting a Ford/Sterling 10-1/4" rear end and stock HD F250 4x4 springs under a 80-86 bronco? Will the
pinion yoke be farther forward with the 10-1/4" verses a 8.8"
The transfercase will be a BW1345

well that depends on the springs you are using and the length of your truck. i doubt you'd have any problems but even if the angles are off you can always go grab a set of dergreed shims to fix that right up!

no problems EXCEPT those 250 springs wont give you much lift, and since the pinion on the 10.25 sticks out so much farther than the 8.8, your prolly gonna have to shorten your drivshaft...im assuming your at stock height (i.e no blocks)

there are 2" blocks in the back of the bronco now. I'm not sure if they are staying or not, but there wont be alot of lift, maybe a 2" lift or add-a-leaf kit on the back and a levelling kit on the front.
