how much of a difference are we talkin here? 4.53 vs. 4.56 or something of the like? Less than ~5% shouldn't ever be a problem on the trail, and if you drive it in 4wd on the road and something you are just a dummy.
Speaking of , has BDR got turned back on yet or do I get to keep calling him a queen?
Has anyone seen or read if you can take parts from a fixed yoke ford np208 and convert the chevy slip yoke 208 to a fixed yoke? Links would be sweet if you know of some.
He who dies with the most **** wins, after seeing your collection you are in the lead no doubt!
Parts from a dirt cheap NP218 might work. I know a guy...
On the 8th day god created the Super Swamper TSL and said "go forth and kick ass"
yes it will work, u can also use a fsj 208 that are all fixed yoke. so is dodge
Red 81 CJ5, 35's, 4.10 and detroit, 4 to 1 dana 300, tbi efi, flat belly, cage, chromos and auzzie in front... sometimes runs. body damage to come
So apparently they do make drivers side 60 balljoint knuckles already machined for a high steer arm....

It is odd that the description says for Chevy and Dodge, but I think that just means that I would need to run Chevy outers (spindles/hubs/rotors) I think that the ball joint part would still mesh with my Ford 60 inner knuckles.
ANyone else know if anyone is making a balljoint drivers knuckle that could utilize the Ford outers? Though if I ran Chevy outers, I could bum outer shafts from Sharpe and Colman......
92 YJ
04 F-150 4x4
11 F-250 4x4
The internals *should* be identical. swap out the main shaft and tail housing (slip yoke housing).
or find a FSJ NP208 and swap out the input shaft, which would be much easier.
but i take it you have both, so... why dont you tear them apart and do a detailed write up for us?

That's the problem I sold all of my ford 208's before I bought my house so now I actually have to buy one to see if this works .
One last question before I go buy one and play lego's with t-cases. I have never been inside a chain drive t-case so this may be a dumb question, but is the front input attached to the mainshaft/tailshaft or are you able to change the input so that you can get the right spline count for your trans.
I don't think ford ever used 32 spline inputs so I would need to swap my chevy 32spline input onto the ford mainshaft correct?
