The ring gear is 10 3/4 or bigger also, similar pinion sizes as the Dana 60 have I ran one in my 63 bracket Belevedere with 5.13 gears, it was a heavy rascal way heavier than the 8 3/4 I took out the 70 has a lot bigger axle tube also, the axles should be 35 splines also Let us know what you find Mr.Cab Racing and winning with Mopars since 1964.

I don't think any internal parts froma Dana 60 will interchange (except maybe the pinion yoke, maybe not ) with the Dana 70 parts. Hopefully someone with more hands on or actual experience on the parts will chime in Mr.Cab Racing and winning with Mopars since 1964. (Old F--t, Huh)

If You don't work with them everyday they can look the same.The covers interchange,the pinion is the same dia. They do cast 60 or 70 on them, but I have seen them badly rusted and unreadable Give Me the Numbers off the Ring Gear, I can look them up and let You know what they are. I Own a Driveline Shop in Pa.
