i have a chance to get a dually rear end with disc brakes and the rims are 10 bolt, i do not know the gearing in the rear end, but the truck it came from is a 91 ford f-450, i know the spring perches are going to need to be extended and welded to fit mine, but the truck also had a solid beam front axle (2 wheel) with dually hubs and there 10 bolt also, will those hubs fit on my dana 60 front? im not sure because of the 4x4 hub on mine if it will swap over.

There was some talk about this style rear end on the .org site awhile back. Can't remember the model of the rearend, but it had either 4.88 or 5.13 gears.

thats going to be some looww gearing, can i swap my 3:54's into it? and would those front hubs work?

i think its a dana 80 dont know about the front hubs

Yep, it's a disc braked D80 rear, gearing is definitley going to be one of the 2 mentioned ratios, and no, your 3.54's won't swap into it. Also, there is no parking brake provision, those trucks ran a driveline brake from the factory.
The front hubs will definitley not work either.

our f-superduty with a dana 80 has park brake cables on it

The driveline brake is cable operated, but, it's still mounted at the transmission and not at the wheels. The brake is actually set up so it bolts to the back of a 4x4 transmisison in place of a transfer case.
If you have something different, it is not factory.

ohh ok, i figured the hubs wouldent work after i was looking at a dually hub at work, thats alrightt, just means no ford parts on my dodge
