    Dana 60 High steer/ full hydro questions

    What kind of high steer arms are you guys running with full hydro? I was thinking of using the basic style with the bolt on spicer cap. What about Ackerman or geometry? I have a double ended 10" ram (will be de-stroked) if it matters. What about the short tie-rods from the arms to the cylinder...

    Check my axle math

    I am narrowing a chevy Dana 60 to toyota spring pad width. The toyota spring pins are 29.0" apart, and the chevy spring pads are 31.5" by my measurement. I want to use a dodge shortside axle (1.5" shorter) and a custom long side, 3.0" shorter. So 4.5" narrower total? Just making sure I am not...

    Toyota t-case carnage

    Dana 60 6.17 gear strength?

    What kind of luck are people having with the higher Dana 60 gear ratios? I was considering either 5.86 or 6.17, but I dont want to break ring and pinions. I have 35 spline yukons and drive flanges on order, I would prefer to keep the weak point the shafts or joints.

    Suppose you were going to build a 60...

    Would you do it the same way as before? I am bored and need a project. I am thinking its kind of silly to buy a sixty for 900 and not use the brakes, shafts, hubs, steering, gears, carrier, diff cover, or yoke. I have also been thinking about retubing a newer superduty axle as some of them come...
