    D60/14BFF Axle Swap on M1009

    Pretty sure you could get away with a 39 tooth speedometer gear and keep the housing that came with your ride. It would be close... I think. I don't know for sure what color the drive gear is on the NP208 that is on the M1009. If you pull out the single 10mm head bolt that holds the housing...

    D60/14BFF Axle Swap on M1009

    Pretty sure the answer is no. Parking brake cables have different part numbers on Rock Auto for the 14 bolt and 10 bolt axles.

    D60/14BFF Axle Swap on M1009

    Bilstein 5125's. (The one size fits all ORD front ones and 11" travel rears) With one ton axles and big tires you have a huge amount of unsprung weight. I went with the shocks because I use my rig to commute in the winter, and about half of my drive is freeway travel. The Bilstein shocks...

    D60/14BFF Axle Swap on M1009

    Might think about longer front shocks too. I got rid of the stock mount and bolted on a cut down F350 mount. Makes a pretty big difference in how much you can articulate. ORD has the setup. I am running about 3" of lift.

    D60/14BFF Axle Swap on M1009

    They would fit and work, but the ratio would be incorrect unless you are running stock sized tires. Wild guess is that the 1008 would have the other model of driven gear holder with a different offset. You have to use the right holder based off what tooth count driven gear you use. The higer...

    http://www.73-87.com/7387garage/drivetrain/speedo.htm That should help out with the speedometer. Gears can be had on eBay or elsewhere. There are two different driven gear holders. You may have to get the other holder for your np208 since are making such a jump in gearing.

    D60/14BFF Axle Swap on M1009

    That is pretty much it. You will probably want to get the correct set of plastic gears for your speedometer. Like what was allready said be sure to get the spring plates for the Dana 60. It is where the sway bar connects and they ca be a bit tricky to find.

    D60/14BFF Axle Swap on M1009

    Another opinion to toss out there on the rear disk brake topic. A positive parking brake is a must have for me, so I have the stock drums. The stock drums are huge , heavy, work well and are plentiful. The only disk brake setup I have seen with a decent parking brake is a 2003 ish (don't know...
