8 bolts hold the wheels on, sorry the attached doesn't show it well but I think you can tell the axle is a full floating version given the axle attachment.
Having second thoughts about the engine and rather than building a 350/383 I may go the LS route. Biggest question is how to tune the electronics of the LS given this truck will be nothing like anything an LS would come from and I would still prefer a manual transmission. I guess I need to do some more research.
