I have a 93 F150 5.8L 4X4 and Im buying a 84 f250 4X2 5.8L and It has a sterling under it and I was wondering if I can do a swap between them. Im buying the F250 for the engine and tranny (Im getting it for 200). The engine needs a disributor and thats it. It has like 71K on it. Im getting it from my friend so I know what happened to it. Just can I change that rear for my 8.8?
if the gear ratio is the same, it should be a bolt in. if the ratio is different, you will have to regear it before you can use 4X4, otherwise you will need to replace allot more than just gears.
I want to keep the 93 tanny the same just want to swap the rear end. Im going to slap the engine tranny into a 62 Fairlane. Can I drill and tap the rear end for a VSS
What are you going to do about the front? Are you going to convert it to 2wd, buy an 8-lug front axle for it, hope you don't get a flat, or carry two spares?
Im looking for a solid front just gotta find it. I got this rear just thought I would put it in and wait for the solid. but Ill need to get the tranny and stuff first. It would be aweosme to find a 4X4 of the truck I just bought and put the fairlane body on the truck frame
