I need help Identifying the differences in 68 to 70 b body dana 60. What are the obvious differences? breaks, Emergency Break Cable, Part Number locations. I have a 70 gtx I need one for and have severl friends that I can get one from but want to make sure of application. Any pictures and help is appreciated. Thanks in advance!

If it has BREAKS you want to find one that is not broken.
That aside , the part number is stamped on the right side avle tube towards the center , the brake backing plates are the same , the drums may be different 68/69 vs. 70 , the E brake cables are the same , 68 will have a drain plug in the bottom of the housing.

Thanks for the info Very Helpful. It is a 4:10 geared Dana and measures 61 5/8" flange to flange. Problem is I need it for a 70 GTX and not right for b body So back to square 1.
I could give you exactly what you need if you were not on the left coast !

Can someone post a pic of the drain plug on the '68 Dana?
I don't have a picture but it's a recessed drive plug in the bottom ofthe housing , the recess accepts a 1/2" square drive.

John, have you actually verified by the BOM that a '68 housing has a drain plug? I went through this years ago and came away with the thought that only the '66-'67 units were unique by having a drain plug and being a bit narrower than the other B-body Dana's.

All 3 of my 1967 B body Dana 60`s have the drain plug on them. The two 1968 dana 60`s I had did not have the drain plug on them.
Nobody gets in to see the wizard! Ain`t no way! Ain`t no how!

I was actually at the car that has this rear today but didn't look at it , I'll have it checked but I am pretty sure it is a 68 axle .
