OEM 8 3/4" axles are always 30 spline and some truck Dana 60's use the same spline. The only way you could use equal length 8 3/4" axles in a Dana 60 would be to use a different pinion offset than Mopar passenger cars use and then the pinion wouldn't line up with the tunnel.


My axles (Strange 35 spline) had enough spline to allow the placement of the axle into the spool on the short tube side. The other side originally placed the end of the axle about 1/2" beyond the inner edge of the spool. The Dana placement was flush with the inside of the spool. The housing had the stock offset.
