I can get my hands on a 78 bronco for pretty cheap. how hard is it to rip the 44 off of it and put it on my explorer for as cheap as possible? I know its a full size axle, but isn't rick running a full size on his? I would probably have to take the rear axle off also so it would match the front. I think I would rather have a 9" any way. I could always sell the 8.8 to a jeep guy too.
But back to the big picture. Will this be a good axle to use, or should I stick to something out of an early bronco? Or should I fix up this bronco and sell the explorer? questions questions.
Can I use most all of the suspension components off of the bronco and fab it onto the explorer?
Heck, I may as well just keep it the way it is and not do a darn thing. It just makes my head spin. I really want a 44 though.
Somone please set me straight. should I just keep it the way it is with the 6" skyjacker and 33's or go for the gusto (and the empty bank account) and put a 44 on.
I can't stop thinking of all the options. 38" tires just seem too sweet an option on an X. Man am I cornfused on what I should do!!
please help
