I am not worried about the transmision problems because my truck is a stick so I would have to assume that they will not affect me. A speedo is deffinitly something i have to have though. Is there any way to make mine work with this axel? Also I just reliezed after reading and studying this site http://soderblom.net/bronco/tech/ that I am not even sure i know what a radius arm is. Aparently it goes from the axel to rearward to the frame before i thought it went ftom the middle of the frame outwards to the wheel. Im not understanding then why a 78 with a strait axel would not need exteneded radius arms when lifted, but mine does. Yes its pathetic I know. Also by judging from this website it seems the front swap is somewhat on the diffucult side and the rear would be very simple if i knew what it took to make my speedo work.
