Ford 8.8 axle swap

[Axle]

Alright, sorry for the on again/off again, but it's on again.  Hot-Rod is coming over shortly and we will get started.  Anyone else is welcome to join if you're bored and wanna get dirty.

Done!!!  Well, almost.  Thanks to Scott, Alex, Rich, and Hot-Rod for all of the help.  There's still a few things left before I can take it to CTaxle.  Mainly I'm just waiting for the driveshaft and the axle kits.  I think it looks great, and you can definitely see a height difference between the front and rear.  The rear sits about 5/8" higher than the front.  I'm Hot-Rodin' it!

Sorry I couldn't be of assistance for any of it    Stupid busy life!  Looks great.  Now, just so you know.  I don't have any spare axle shafts that particular axle so no breaking on trails.  Got it!?

My new driveshaft should be here by Thursday, Friday at the latest!
