What am I doing with these Dana 60s?

[Dannyboy]

...That I scored today. matching 60s front and rear. 4.56 gears from a 2004 F250.

:scratch:

 

[FROADER]

Sick!! Does that front one have the steering on it? Those are exactly what I need for the Van SAS! I wish I could find some!!

I'm not positive that rear is a 60 though.

 

[Dannyboy]

yeah, it has the tie rod and steering stabilizer but doesn't have the drag link. The sway bar even came with it.

no idea how I am going to move them, the dude loaded them with a fork lift. I bet Izwack needs to get a few neighbors to help him manuever his axle around.

 

[90ranajo]

If they're off of a '04 F250 then that rear should be a Stirling 10.25/10.50".

Ahaha yeah good luck -- you'll definitely need a few people, especially with the front.

 

[RangerX]

Get some stock size rims and tires to roll them around on.

Nice score!

[Lefy]

sweet find how much you score them for

 

[section525]

I'll give you $2k for them if you can get them to CA.

Or $2,100 if you include the shopping cart.







Or $1500 and I'll buy you a decent digital camera.

 

[IZwack]

LOLz

 

[Dannyboy]

Hmmmm, I'd consider selling these for that kind of money.

ACTUALLY!!!! These are going under FROADER'S VAN!!!

I found them on the PHX craigslist and called him immediately lucky dood scored the set for $900 WITH THE 4.56s!!!

 

[FROADER]

ooooh ooooh...ooooh ooooh

 

[section525]

So now we're on wheel watch?

 

[FROADER]

Yeah. 18x8-9" not sure the style yet. I saw this and like the way it looks.

Starting with a 2wd...

It will still be a while before it's 4wd. I need to get a t-case and mod the gas tank to make that fit. Then all the little things to bring it all together.

But it will look sick!

What t-case you need? I know my dad is thinking of parting out his '80 F250. It has a NP20 ---something in it:scratch:

I mentioned to FROADER that a divorced transfer case would be my choice since there's plenty of length for it. Then he doesnt have to worry about matching splines, matching transfer case patterns, and wont have to swap out the 2wd tailshaft housing for a 4wd one. All thats needed is some custom cross member for the transfer case mount, a shift linkage, and a plan to minimize driveshaft work (although it doesn't cost too much to have a driveshaft retubed). Depending on how far the transfer case is, he can probably get away with running a 1-piece front driveshaft (as opposed to have to mount a carrier and run a 2-piece). Of course this also opens a can of worms with gas tank clearance and whatever else is under there.

 

[FROADER]

Yeah, I'm not sure what I'm going with yet. I'll have to really research my options.
