The swap to 3/4 or 1 ton axles is not uncommon. There have been a few who claim to be in possession of a "factory-made" 3/4 ton Bronco sporting the typical D50 front D60 rear from the F-250s of the mid 80's-90's era. Either way, the swap can and has been done. The Graveyard may even stock some of the necessary components
