Explorer Dana 60 build

This weekend i am going to be swapping a dana 60 into the rear of my 96. still on the hunt for a front dana 44 or 60. I will keep you guys updated on the build.
here are some pics
All cleaned up

Spring Perches grinded off

Here is what it looks like compared to my x

Here are the parts I just ordered

Has this been done?

Just wondering, why go with a 60 for the rear? The 8.8 can handle quite a bit of abuse with some very cheap modifications.

I seen on your myspace you were doing the 60, when does the 44 swap begin?

i found wheel adapters to convert the front to 8 lug
x92Exploder im stil trying to figureout how im going to do the build. maybe sometime this summer

just an update..i just got around to working on the truck today i am setting up the brake lines and i also got a full detroit locker for the rear...i am thinking of getting rid if the coil\radius arm idea and going with an 8 lug 44 with waggy springs i just think it will be cheaper and wayy easier to set up..i will keep u guys posted
