Are RTE and ZTE front axle components the same?

Gary,

It depends. If you are changing early R parts with ZTE parts (which would be early) I'd say yes. If you are changing an entire front assembly it will work fine. Certain components changed over the years and you might end up with different axle extension/knuckle combinations. What are you wanting to exchange? Remember, that the tie rod parts and the ball studs are Schwartz, and you can buy them at any major implement dealer. Hope this helps.

Jim

I have a spare 1950 RTE front end and I have located a 1948 ZTE with front end parts missing.
I was hoping to be able to do a full swap. From what my parts books show all RTE,ZTE,ZAE are all the same front end. Anybody tried it?

As long as you are doing a full swap you will be just fine.

The onlything I can think to add is that some ZA's (and later R's, i presume) with hydraulics used a longer steering shaft from the gearbox back to the u-joint, to avoid interferance with the hydraulic pump. Shouldn't apply to your application, though.
