May want to check, I know there are some earlier years that are not very desirable. Yours are probably alright.

Well the swap has begun. Swapping the 10 bolt for a dana 44. So far its mounted up with new rotors and brake pads, new Warn locking hubs, repacked bearings and seals. Goin to get new calipers today then bleed the brakes and then the truck should be rolling again.
