solid front axle swap

[Monkeybone]

i have a 2000 2wd that i am about to put a solid front axle and have found an old international scout and was wondering if it would work on the swap. I have heard that i need a jeep axle it would be the easiest.

The Scout D44 pumpkin will be on the wrong side for your swap.

How long can you be without your truck?

He could go with a t-case with a pass-side drop since he's currently 2wd. Would have to reroute exhaust,etc but it is possible.

Of course he could, but what is going to bolt up to a Ex tranny and be pass drop? It could be done for sure, but it would be a helluva lot easier just to find a more appropriate axle.

What condition is the scout in? make that into a trail rig.

it's in pretty bad condition at a salvage yard here where i live but the axles and everything like that are in pretty good condition. the jeep axles are a probably a better idea. the guy who owns the yard is a real good friend of mine.
