If your front shaft is from an np208 truck it should work... IF you are mounting the front axle in the stock location exactly.

Rear shaft will need modified/replaced. It will need shortened and the front slip yoke replaced. If you currently have a 2-piece shaft with a center carrier, you will just want to eliminate that and have it tubed as 1 piece.

I have a I piece and yes everything will be in stock location and I'm going with a 2 inch spacer and then cut a inch off if will be a 6 inch shaft what I need then for the t case it's 32 spline I have to change that out to a 27 spline probably $200 in parts it will be a good set up
