Converting To Rear Steer.

Anybody know what parts are needed to convert a rear axle to steer. I have tried making deals with people that have front axles to get rid of, and needed rears, but that never pan's out. So I just want to go ahead and convert. I am assuming all I need are misc. nuts and bolts, steering knuckles, and shafts, minus steering hydralics, and tie rod.

Oh, this is for a 404.1

please help, any body got some spare parts.

The Differential and the axles housing are the same. You need the steering parts abd the axles shafts. You can use your nuts and bolts also the geared hubs.
But itīs lot easier if you take the front and give them the rear.

ok wolf, hate to ask, but do you have any spare shafts or knuckles. I am pretty set on tearing down the rear and redoing it.
