I pulled a 5 lug dana 60 out of my 70 road runner , it was out of a van but had 5 lugs and no floating axles. Perches were of course reversed from car perches. This was a factory 5 lug, but not sure what yr van. It is still around in someones car now, I didnt want the 5 inch bolt pattern. The width was off also. This was back in the early 80's when I got this rear. like 81 or so
