    Axle swap question

    I just put down a deposit on a 1979 bronco front dana 44. however i just found out it has cast wedges is there anyway to make them work with leaf springs or do i need to get my deposit back. i have a 95 yj it would be going into.

    The cast ones can not be removed, you need to find one from a 76/77 F150 that has the welded on wedges or find one out of a 78/79 F250 but it will be an 8 lug set up but that can be swapped to 5 lugs. So to answer your question, get your money back.
