lazy copout

 

it is something you could do yourself, but the 2WD is SUA and 4WD is SOA. you would need to find an axle code with a higher #, 4WDs are HG41, 43, 46 and 49. if you could find one that is HF37 or 41 it probably would work out just right.

 

thanks for the info..

does it matter what year hardbody the donor is?

or is it as simple as: any hardbody with an axle code that starts with HF will be compatible?

 

no it doesnt matter what year, 2WDs have a C190 rearend, 4WDs have a H233B or C200. If you could find a 2WD with the higher #s it will bolt right in. 4WDs bolt under the spring so you would have to remove the spring perch and weld it on the underside of the tube to bolt in the axle. sounds easy but you have to take into account the pinion angle before welding.

some pathys (86.5-95) can be used as well, they would need to be 2WD also. 4WDs have 4-link susp. in the rear.

remember, you jumped up 3" in tire size. (26" to 29" tire) to get your speedo back to or close to original you want a 3.9 gear. Calulators from www.4Lo.com
