Toyota Dana 60 swap?

[WA-Wheeler]

You will lose ground clearance..... Something to keep in mind. Especially with a giant 14 bolt..... Try and lower it first and see how you like it.



Ohhh and get a cage :fawkdancesmiley:

 

[PORTER]

If yoi have no finesse...

If thats all you have you wont make everything. There is a time to crawl and a time to get it. You man not understand, do you??:eeek:

Got a buddy with a rod knocking pane powered 22r and its svery capable.

No way he has more than 60 rwhp

I run toy axles with 38.5x 16 wide. Pretty much fortys. I have a 22re, duals, 4.10s

I dont have problems. I run with the dana 60 guys. They dont tow me.

I sleep fine at night. Porter might be able to keep up with me. Maybe.

I did however stay at a holliday in last night.

 

[crash2]

I have been very happy with my 60's.....

I have been very happy with my 60's.....

All I seen at the Bobby run broken wasd a D60 out of all those toyotas!

I like a challenge ya know sucka, but do you??:redneck: All **** talking aside there is a reason the big boys run 60s, Do keep in mind that I have ran polished Toys before and well ya know what happened. What happened was somebody nicknamed me Mr Boom, and Crash:fawkdancesmiley::fawkdancesmiley:

 

[CHOP SHOP]

I have completely built axles now an haven't had to many problems with them.

So your looking to fix a problem you DONT have?

Do keep in mind that I have ran polished Toys before and well ya know what happened

And you fixed a problem you HAD.


Stop trying to talk the guy into missing out on some good wheeling by tearing his truck apart.


Those Dana60 you have (porter) are not in a TOYOTA, are they? They are not hooked to a set of leafs and pushed by a 22re, are they?


See, if the guy was asking for jeep/cruiser/buggy advice about how to keep axles alive with a V8, I woule BY ALL MEANS suggest building d60s.


But as long as he wheels a turd, enjoy those polished axles.


If the fascination with heavy EXPENSIVE axles still persists, then plan a cruiser/buggy build with a real Tcase and a powerful engine.

Hows a 9" compare to a d60?

Im gonna do a 9"/fj80 front

Porter, back when you wheeled a toy axle thinmgs like high steer, 30 spl Longs, duals, most lieley hadnt even been invented yet. :fawkdancesmiley:

So I can imagine how frustrating it must have been BACK THEN! :haha:

Ya Ya, I am just spreading the word, wish somebody would have convinced me sooner as I would have saved of money in the process. But on the brighter side scrap was up back in the day so I made a little back when shiat failed. Oh and besides my buggy having 60s, so does my Jeep:redneck:. Polished also offcourse.:haha:

When did you put a v8 in your buggy, Porter?

 

[PORTER]

When did you put a v8 in your buggy, Porter?

Never had, still running a V-6..

 

[CHOP SHOP]

When did you put a v8 in your buggy, Porter?

He doesnt run a gut turd 4cyl. And a V8 could always be an option.

 

[LiftedZuki]

Plus a 4.3 weighs about as much as a v8 lol

 

[CHOP SHOP]

Yes, the weight is just as big of a deal as the added power.

4.3s are powerfull and heavy. Just like a V8. Good point.

I did the zook thing with toy axles, ringer-w-56 to dual toys about 10 years ago. Man I was deep cash wise into that rig. Real deep.:eeek:

 

[LiftedZuki]

I love the 16v with 36s. It oens in the dunes and snow.

My sami did real well too, just had to be at7500 rpm lol

 

[whatthe?]

You're not a serious wheeler unless you got rockwells.
