Is there a better option for axle choice as far as installation and what will I be in for as far as, hanging steering components, adding a transfer case to a muncie 4spd and such. I would like to use a dana 60 front and rear, but they all look to be full size truck axles and I need a 60" axle. Is there a way to make sure the leaf springs will line up with where there suppose to go on either option. I'm not doing a chasis swap.

Hello sounds like a cool swap but to be honest I don't know much about 4x4's im sorry, I did use the rear end from a 89 blazer 4x4. Good luck ive seen a few 4x4 fleetsides look really cool
