Simple answer... No torque arm mount not to mention leaf springs instead of LCA and pan hard bar...

Or "I found a 9 inch in the junk yard for 50 bucks will it work?"

Yes and no... once again that pesky torque arm mount not to mention housing width suspension brackets axles...If your feeling up to a challenge and you have the tools(which will cost more than buying a bolt in housing) not to mention abality to convert such a peice then by all means go for it, when welding on a housing great care must be taken not to warp the housing due to heat this will cause loss of axle center line as well as camber and toe.... please contact a sponsor located over here--------------->
To find the best deals..

I'llthink of some more to add later Im pretty sure this forum will be empty if most questions are covered in this FAQ
This sums it up very well. Bob
