I already have a built BII but want to start another build before too long and am starting to research axle options. Just looking to figure out what donor vehicles to be watching the local Pull-A-Part for. See below for specs on my current ride.
I want to do full width Dana 60s on the next one front and rear (does not have to be same donor as front). I want high pinion for both ends. I think I want to go will ball joints, old school tapered bearings (non unit bearing), and manual locking hubs. I'm thinking full floater for the rear. Open to suggestions on my current thoughts. This build won't start for a while, just making plans right now.
