Title: dana 60 front axle
Post by: ballistics-10 on December 05, 2011, 10:44:30 PM
ok i havent done much with 1 tons and this truck am staying 1 tons. i got a set of dana 60 axles front and rear. i am told they are from a 1970's dodge pickup. i thought i read this a long time ago.. i havent pull the front apart yet. it the dodge axles 35 spline outers or does it depend on the year of axle and stuff?

Id look for a 70 or 14ff for the rear. Them 60 rears dont hold up as good....
