1. I know very little about the axle differences, having said that;
2. On the 47-59 forum there are a lot of discussion about what fits earlier AD (Advanced Design 47- 55 1st series) and TF (Task Force 55-2nd-59) for chassis swaps. The general consensus is parts from C/K series trucks are suited for TF because they are wider, S-10 series is better suited to AD because they are narrower and do not stick way out beyond the fenders.
3. Do any of the guys here know if S-10/Jimmy 4wd front axles will work for this guy?

Just a thought as I read the thread.
