I've got an offer for a Dana on the table as well.




Do it and don't look back, you'll never have to worry again.




If it was a B-body Dana, I'd call it a no brainer, but its a Dana 60-2 (smaller axle tubes) out of a Jeep pickup truck. A local moparts member offered it to me for a song, which is great! However, It would need to be narrowed and have new perches mounted, It needs the axles to be redrilled for mopar bolt pattern, and I would also have to shorten my drive line. I can't do any of those things myself, so I'd have to pay to have them done. I know it would be the right direction to go, but I just don't have the $1200 (approx.) it would cost.

I think that if I go with a Detroit Locker style diff in the 8-3/4" instead of the powerlock unit, it should be plenty strong to hold up to my car, and at less than half of what it would cost me to do the Dana. I don't know....
