dreaminbohemian Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 I t-boned a mini van yesterday and totalled my COMANCHE in the front. no apparent damage behind the a pillar as of yet (havent gotten it from the yard) 1990 SWB 4.0L 2wd I also own a 1989 SWB 2.5L 2wd that is rusted so bad there is a 20 inch seam opening around the front knuckle of the driver side leaf spring (started its life in Iowa) I will be pulling parts from the 90 to make the 89 a little safer (both of the leaf springs have cracked and are u bolted back together) How do I put my ax-15 behind the 2.5? Should I take the gears out of my 4.0 rearend? easier to swap rear ends if I am taking off the springs? All of this will be done in a gravel driveway, YAY What else should I consider taking off of the 4.0? I don't think I am ready to preform a swap but have been considering storing the 4.0. Problem is I already have a 350 on my engine stand that I need to get rid of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incommando Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 The gear ratio in the 4.0 axle will probably have a negative effect on the 2.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dreaminbohemian Posted August 7, 2015 Author Share Posted August 7, 2015 Thanks John, sorry for the short life I showed it, looking at trying maybe to take the front clip off of my rust bucket. My game plans are taking me a bunch of deffernt directions, not sure what the best move is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
