Ok, so new axles are inbound. Both out of a 1994 or 1995 (can't remember) extended cab xlt 4.0l, 4x4, M5OD, 1354, 8.8 posi rear, D35 front.
Will these be a bolt on for a 1988 frame? Same setup- 4x4, manual, etc. Was guessing both will be, but wanted to double check.
Planning on setting these up on my new frame as soon as it comes back from sandblasting. May get the axles blasted as well; my guy works cheap.
Oh, and off topic (which one of my posts isn't...), but is the M5OD that's behind the 1995's 4.0 geared differently than the 1990 M5OD on mine? Mine came from a 1990 2.9 truck. Already planning on robbing the 10 inch clutch off of the 4.0, so if it's trans is a better set of gears, I'm going to grab it as well.
