4x4 question
Its been raining here for some time now and since I dont have a shop all I can do is think up questions about what I am going to do and then prepare for when the sun gods smile. I have a 65 F100 4x4 and a running frame from a 66 F250 4x4. Are the front hubs and transfer cases typically the same or were there multiple options. I know the 65 has a 3:73 rear axle and 3:70 front axle which is fine since I will be pulling a small camp trailer quite a bit. I am putting a NP435 into the 65 and am trying to anticipate what I might need from the 66 in the way of parts. Once I have what I need from the 66 the rest will be up for grabs. I know my way around my daily driver (66 F100 300ci with 670,000 miles) but 4x4's are a new beast. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks for the feedback. I was afraid that the hubs would be different because one was a 1/2 ton and one a 3/4 ton but one could hope. I dont know that there is a problem with the F100 hubs but wanted "extra parts" in case. Its good to know about the transfer case.
