why do you need to do that?  the housing are the same. what comes into play is the how the axle shaft bolts to the hub. chevy 60 have different bolt pattern on the axle to hub then dodge and ford. dodge use a wedge to hold the axle to the hub. ford uses 7/16 size bolts to hold the axle to hub.

Because I have a 60  out of a dodge van and the wheel studs are different sized as my ford front. Want to make them all the same size

you sure its a 60 not a 70?  all the dana 60 i have the same size wheel studs as a ford. but 70s have 9/16 studs. but I do have a set hubs for a60s if you need them.

Its a 60 but the wheel studs are the same size as the 9 inch that was under it.... But if them hubs would work what do you got to have for them

Not sure on what your running, but if its high hp, id suggest a Dana 70. 60shafts snap like toothpicks sometimes

I wouldnt even worry about them not holding up. Buncha power and tractors twist them up real quick
