Dana 28 to Dana 35 swap with lift

[Cowpoke07]

Hey guys, I have a 87 b2 with Dana 28 currently still on with a James duff 4 inch lift kit. I have a Dana 35 off a 97 ranger. What more will I need to complete this swap? @Josh P @410Fortune

Not much
The Dana 28 and Dana 35 share all the same mounts and hardware so it’s a really easy swap and something that should be done with every Dana 28, they are weak!

The best upgrade now is either 95-97 ranger outers with the dual piston calipers and slide bolts (instead of pins) or Dana 44 outers with larger brakes/ spindle/bearing hubs
