12 bolt axles

[355]

I did a search and found nothing. Sooooo, my friend and I are going to convert my 69 chevy truck to 5 lug. We are going to take a 82 crossmember assembly and put it in the front, but I am concerned about the rear. Long ago I tried to change out my worn axles, bought a used 12 and found that the axles were just a little to short. Installed some cheater bearings and kept on drivin. Now with this change coming on my friend says that the 82 axles will fit. If they don,t we will have to bootleg the trailing arm mounts and fab a panhard bolt for the 82. Just what am I goin get into here. Thanks for your time, Steve    :?:
