    Yes, they're compatible. But, what are your plans for this truck? If you want a hard core wheeler, I'd go with a th400 and a Dana 300 and a set of Dana 60's. Both are nearly indestructible. Dana 44's are good axles for moderate wheeling but can be beefed up to be very strong. If it's moderate wheeling you're planning, the 700r4 and Dana 18 will be fine.

    Oh, welcome to the site.

    Thank you sir. I'm planning on restoring her to be my daily driver. I just want to be able to go off road if necessary. And I'm planning on putting some 33's on her.

    Yeah i know its a peice of junk right now, but i've always been a jeep guy and i've wanted one of these since i was little. I like that ride you have though! I'm thinking of going orange with mine as well.
    Cleaned her up yesterday and started taking her apart.



    There are no dents and the only Rust damge is the floor boards which will be an easy fix

    Planning on doing some body work on the hood and putting some dual hood scoops on her

    Today im working on getting the engine and the rest of the drive train out. It came with a old ford flathead V8. And the frame is in amazing shape. There are no cracks the sanding is going much faster than i thought it would.
