I've heard and read about rumors of a few sets hanging around.

Id like to get a set before I buy a 3.54 set.

Where should I start looking?

Dana never made 3.30 gears for the Dana 60, only for the Dana 61 rear ends

Yes..that is true..I happened to find a Dana 61 in a 1985 Ford Truck...with 3:07 rear gears for my project!...Hard to find...the 3:07 and 3:31 rear gears are only offered in the Dana 61 in early to mid 80's Ford 3/4 ton 2WD trucks

The early non-overdrive 5.9 Cummins D250 and D350 had the 3.07 gears too.

And the 66/67 Dana 53 in the C body was available with 3.31.

I disagree guys, I have 3.33 gearset that I bought for my dana 60 from a member here. I admit that I haven't tried to install them yet, but when I was looking for some, the info I dug up indicated that 78 or 79 ford F250 pickup trucks were available with 3.33 gears in a dana 60. Can't say what carrier they would require.

I have 3.33`s in my Satellite. It is a Ford truck Dana-60.
Do not know its origin.
I`m looking to change the gears to 3.73. PM me if interested

From what I have read you may have a Dana 61. I think they look almost identical except the pinion is offset to accommodate the bigger pinion of the 3.xx gears.
