he says it had a bent axle from the previous owner due to off-roading so his mechanic swapped in the ifs out of an 87. :pat:

almost worth a look to see if its a frame swap, since i drive by it every other day.

What a great idea!!

:pat:

I'll bet he swapped out the entire frame..

the whole axle, like the axle housing/diff and wat nots? or just the inner axle?

if the inner axle, you coulda got a chromoly inner axle, both sides for $229 from all pro.

if the whole axle, you coulda just went to a junker and got one like ppl do for SAS for not that muhc $$. atleast compared to dropping in an IFS.

there musta been quite a bit of fabing to put in an ifs.

upper and lower mounts for the A arms and all the torsion stuff, the whole axle (cvs, diff, axle shafts, etc...).

i wonder how much it cost him.

And ppl are flaming me coz my friend wants to sell his REAL 1985 p.u. for $4200, complete rebuilt motor and trans!
