The 91 is a different body style that never had a solid front axle. No axle is going to bolt up, it's a custom job. You need to make sure the diff is on the same side your transfer case drops down. If you arnt familiar with citing and welding this isn't a job for you. It's 100% custom

Actually, the 91 crew cab 1 ton was the last year of the square body style for GM. The crew cabs, both 2wd, (classified as the R3500), and 4wd, (V3500), were carried over until 1991. 1/2 tons and 3/4 tons had the new body style.
