		Intriguing.  Was it only '77 F350 duallies that would have a
rear the same
		width as a YJ?  Too bad it is wider than a CJ.

		Here's another potential project to think about. I have a
rear Dana 60
		dually from a '77 F350 2wd.  The frame rails on the '77 are
narrower than on
		a non-dually vintage pickup.  The spring pads are 40-41"
apart if I remember
		correctly.  The brake backing plates are about the same
distance apart as on
		a YJ rear axle.   So the axle housing length, flange to
flange, is almost a
		stock replacement for a YJ.  Custom axle shafts, coupled
with disc brakes or
		non-dually drum brakes, and..... a low pinion D60 with 4.10
gears.  Not that
		I need one of these, but is it worth converting one of
these?
