1 ton sway q/a

[backwoodsblazerk5]

Im looking to do a 1 ton swap in my 1990 k5, stock 10 bolts in right now, stock suspension.

Found a d60 front and a 14bff for a steal and gonna go get them this weekend.
I know I will probably need new drivelines since Im doing the lift at the same time but Im concerned about steering up front? Will it bolt up or do I need to spend more money on a high steer kit etc.
Please let me know on any little details about the swap that I might forget being that I havent done this before.

What size lift?

Plan on some sort of steering correction. but Jim is right, it all depends on how much lift your going with

 

[sweetk30]

4" lift should be fine with stock front shaft on blazer as dana 60 pinion sits back farther.

rear hit or miss on that other than conversion joint to 1ton rear.

get a drop pitman arm or do crossover . skip the raised steering block offered for 60 axles.

ya if your building your own crossover setup and not doing a kit purchase . and also will NOT work on stock 4x4 push/pull steering.
