Hi, i recently became an owner of a 83 ranger 2.8l v6, manual trans with a 5.5 lift. When i bought the truck it had a broken front right axle and it wasnt as easy as i thought it would be to find a decent one in a junk yard. but i finally did and replaced it but from everything ive seen people say junk the 28 and either go to a straight axle or the dana 35. ive seen a few things saying its not that hard to do the swap to a dana 35 but i was just wondering if anyone can give me some more info on this topic. Thank you!

Hi and welcome to TRS. If you check up at the top of the page you'll find the" tech section". Peruse that for your answers. Ask away after if you still need to. It is fairly simple.
