So just to chime in... The slant six is its own bolt pattern. LA, A, Magnum (3.9, 5.2, 5.9) are pretty much the same (by memory on a swap, I think the Magnum has one bolt thats different location). 3.7, 4.7, 5.7, V10 are the same pattern. 350, 361, 383, 400, 413, 426, 440 share the same pattern.

Thanx bro!! Most helpful!! I found a 77 Power wagon 3/4 for a donor.

It's harder than I thought to find info on that particular swap. But Ive found enough info bits to feel more confident about try...

Can anybody give me a link to any threads on swapping my 71 2wd front axle to a 80 4wd Ramcharger axle to get front disc or is this a possibility? I may swap to 4x4 in the future but for now just wanted to get discs. Thanx guys
