Help me plan my drivetrain

[recoiljunky]

I'm putting together a new motor for my '76 and it's painfully obvious that I'm going to be breaking parts when I get this thing running. I'm putting in a 393 stroker with aluminum top end. What upgrades should I plan for?

Here's what I have:

Dana 44 front - open
Big bearing 9" rear with 31 spline shafts and a full spool
NP435
Dana 20 - I don't know if the PO upgraded the output shaft or not
Old, sloppy, worn out driveshafts
36x12.50x15 TSLs

It's also got decent brakes and power steering.

I'm going to put in a new Centerforce clutch when I drop in the motor.

The Bronco will never see any rock crawling, just mud bogging, trail riding and a few trips to the corner store.

I've got to replace the driveshafts soon. The splines are worn out. Is there an upgrade here that needs to be made?

I would ditch the stock "Y" tie rod and drag link. And up grade it to something stronger.

CTMs or comparable joints, with at least 30 spline axles, arb front, also that spool is gonna be hell to drive on the street.

drive shafts? extreme duty maybe,

Definately do something to eliminate axle wrap or you'll be eating your u-joints alive.
