Axle mix-up

RedRanger1987 · May 25, 2010

So I just bought an 87 ranger donor truck, with a 6 inch suspension lift and a 3 inch body lift for my 89 ranger. It also had a solid axle conversion. Got the lift on and when I tried to reconnect the front brake lines, the threads didn’t match. So I did a little research on the solid axle and it’s actually a Dana 30 from a 85 jeep Comanche. I figure I can get an adapter, but im not sure what the thread sizes are for each. I also lack the tools to be able to tell. Any answers or suggestions?

Try going to your local auto parts store. My local auto parts store has helped me with such things before. I would think they could help you with an adapter for your application. It's best if you can take the parts in with you to find an adapter but they might still be able to help with taking parts out of their inventory.

The autoparts store can measure the threads for you
