The axle in your truck, if original is an Eaton HO52. In order to perform this tech tip you need to purchase a HO72 rear pumpkin from a salvage yard. Pull the axle shafts and swap the pumpkins. It really is that simple....
So I have a 58 1-ton dually with 5.14 gears I believe it's a HO72. I also have a 68 3/4 ton 4.10 posi rear end out of a 350/350 truck I believe I have a HO52. I can swap the 3rd member out of the HO72 for the HO52??
Brakes....will I need to find brakes for my HO72 1-ton dually from another newer 14 bolt dually? OR will a SRW 14 bolt brakes work as well??
Reason I ask the brake question is I have a SRW mid 80's 14 bolt 4.10 rear end out of a 3/4 ton.
