One of our trucks took a hit in the rear and killed the rear axle. The car just kinda slide underneath the truck and the axle was there to stop it. Believe it or not other damage is not as bad as it could be. We have a replacement '02 Dana 80 w/ 3.55 gears w/ no brakes that was going to be put on a Dodge that ended up being totaled. I realize there is going to be a little fab. work but thats not a problem, will the axle w/ the 3.55 gears work?
