$110 shipped and they are yours. i screwed them on, mocked up the axle, then changed my mind and bought something else. never even welded them on.
how far back do they extend onto the frame of a b2?

oh yeah.. i had a nice thread going on about the d35 being capable or not.. i'm gonna do the d35 and probably a stonecrusher "look a like" or some kind of custom steering. i'll make it work.

If you don't want your rig done for long, then just throw in a D35. Mine was down for only 2 days after I broke the D28. It was so easy.

I was wondering how hard it was to swap in a 35. I have one in my other B2. I'm plannin a SAS for it later on. But for now its disabled. So I'm swappin in my 1350m this weekend. Would I have probs with the d35 and 1350?

the 35 is a bolt in. only thing youll have to do is shorten your front drive shaft cause the 35 pig is bigger than the 28 pig...

i think it was around 10.5" longer. I used them on factory 78-79 bronco radius arms for my SAS, but decided to go with duff arms instead

in the box


installed


i'm pretty sure they would thread onto a TTB radius arm as well. I've got a dana 35 sitting around that i could test them on. keep in mind they do have to be welded on after they are threaded on.
