rear gears changabilityness

Post by 1971ford »

if you wanted to take the gears out of a f100's rearend and swap them into a f250's rear end and put the f250's gears into the f100's, would all that work?

and switching a f250's and a f100's complete rear assembly (not suspension or anything) out for each other would work right?
in other words, unhooking the leafs of the trucks and the driveshafts and directly swapping.. :?

no on the gear swap. F100 in a 9" Ford, the F250 is a Dana 60 which is made by Spicer.
You could swap the whole rear but then you'd have 8 lug rear and 5 lug on the front.. May require a different u-joint also..
