Ryan:
I've accumulated alot of information recently on front & rear end swaps for
TF (55-59) trucks. I'm attaching the file to this reply (the file is 9
pages long if printed). I just sent it to Wayne (this member list moderator)
and asked if he wanted to post it in the technical section of his web site.
I hope you can open it and the information will be useful.
