possible swap

ihave a 82 f150 4wd that had a300/np435/np208/9"rear. ihave aquired a solid 89' 460 with about 30k miles on it.if i put this in the truck would the axles hold up? i would also replace the np435 with a fresh t19.also the axles have a 3.00 ratio and a posi front and rear.
thank you for any help.

IMO the axles will hold up if the 460 is stock.

i would also keep the np435, its a strong tranny and will probably hold up better then the t19.

Keep the Np435. Got mine hooked up to a 390 with 35's and it holds up great.

The gear ratios are awful in the 435. The T19 diesel is much nicer for the road but maybe the granny low would be useful if you are the rockcrawler type .

The six banger must have been a dog with 3.00 gears

the t19 is the original trans from the 460. came in a dually, and is like new. i would think it would be just as strong. the gears are similar except 1st. i think 6.32 vs 4.02.
