Call Dr. Diff for the Dana. He deals w/ Strange. Cal-Tracs you can get directly from Calvert I believe. We put a set of US Car Tool frame connectors on my dad's '69 road runner that worked out nice. Or the cheaper MP connectors will work too...planning on putting a set of them on my other '69 road runner.

Dr Diff for the diff. You can get the cal track from jegs or summit IIRC.
Just because you think it won't make it true. Horsepower is KING. To dispute this is stupid. C. Alston

The CalTracs can be bought directly, or from Mancini Racing, but not thru Summit or Jegs.

Calvert shipping $$ is the big deal. Maybe find someone who has free shipping
Get a good double adjustable shock, dont mess with the junk calvert shocks, or rancho. A good, cheap alternative is viking. Call them directly, the customer service they offer is awesome.

This^^^^^^ A shock that is only one way adjustable is like a carb you can only jet richer. The Vikings are a good shock for the money. If you google cal tracs you may find some like classic industries that will eat the freight.

Adam Sailor, aka "demongup", in PA is a Moparts member and CalTrac dealer where I got my last parts.
I bought my Strange S-60 from Doctor Diff.
Good service from both, BTW.

I bought a truck Dana 60 cut the ends off and had the local Race Shop weld on the 8 and 3/4 ends. It was a lot cheaper in the end. As for the caltracs, make sure you get mono leaves or split monos with them. I did the very thing like this Summer that you're planning on doing. I'm going to go ahead and spring for the Viking double adjustable shocks too. I did buy a spool and axles from dr. Diff.
