Similarly, I was going to swap my Eaton HO52 rear axle for a 14 bolt or D60. I kept the HO52 for which I was able to locate all the parts I needed. I'm really glad I kept the HO52 - it's a great axle. You should be able to scrape together whatever parts you might need for the Eaton. The Dana 44 up front should serve you well.

Did the truck come with the original motor?
Thanks for the input Deadhead.

As far as the original motor I don't have it. But the guy I bought the truck from does. He used it in a build he is doing.

Saturday is almost here. then I can break it down to just the frame, and start the rebuild of the everything that takes/uses oil..
