nissan 720 axles swap

[Elye]

what axles would you guys put under a 1985 nissan 720 and what would line up factor or stock

[datzenmike]

 I assume 2wd so rear only. Axles don't wear out but the wheel bearings might. They are replaceable. Why would you change the axles? What are you trying to do?

If it is not broke don't fix it.

I'd put full width D60s from a '79 Ford truck, with 42" sticky tires. Don't lift the truck, just cut the shit out of the fenders and cab.

No idea what he is trying to accomplish.

The 2wd would have an H-190 which is 7.48 or basically 7 1/2". Good for 300ft lbs of engine torque. Gear choices range from 3.362, 3.545. 3.70, 3.889, 4.11, 4.375, 4.625 and 4.875. There was a clutch LSD option in the early '90 Hardbody, rare as rocking horse shit.

 

Upgrade? Would that be disc brakes and LSD? Ford Mustang 8.8? Has to be shortened to fit, wrong lug pattern but lots of LSD and gear choices and disc brakes. Don't know why anyone would want LSD unless you live in swamp.
