That's very cool. I have been working up to the same swap for quite a while. I have a 4.30 e-locker third and 4.30 front diff. I am still planning to get an arb installed for the front.

How long did it take you to install the front diff? Any tips? What steering/front suspension components did you have to remove/disconnect?


Front is much faster than the back, most difficult part is getting the breather line back on the diff. I disconnected the sway bar and the four bolts on the bottom of the lower a-arm at the hub. Then I took a hammer and tap and tapped the axle out of the housing while still connected to the hub. Just pull it out and lay it aside (it will still be connected to the truck). This keeps the alignment, and the diff. came out in about 45 minutes. Does that explanation help any? If not I'll give you my phone number when you get ready for your install.
