    As I said , you may be able to replace the diff for less than the cost of adapters , same with the front axle

    Yeah for sure chryco, at least this could be an option. it's the front axle i am worried about hopefully i can find one the same width or a bit narrower as i am not sure if i take the old hubs off if there is a hub that i need that would adapt to the old axle. anyway i will have to do whatever it takes maybe even shorten a newer axle to the right length.

    73440, that is cool.

    would that have been stock? it just looks very thrown in after the fact.

    Yeah it's stock, normally it would be a red disk type knob so your fingers could grab it
