Subject: Whats a good deal? Date: Sat, 11 Nov 2000 18:35:59 -0600 After writing this I realized it very long...thought I would warn you all first :) In response to a recent message I read on this list, I would like to ask if you all think I got a good deal on my recent purchase. Not that there is anything I can or would do about it now, but I think it was a great buy ...I LOVE MY TRUCK :) Anyway... 67 F-100 2 wd Standard Steering, standard brakes, manual tranny (T-18 granny low) 390 w/ 4500 miles on the rebuild, re-build was complete, runs awesome! Holley 4 barrel and Hedmann Headers new shocks and new brakes...all new super straight body and bed. pretty rusty along the bottom of both doors, bottom of both fenders, and rear cab corners. With the exception of the passenger side rear corner, all rust is surface. The pass side rear corner is mostly gone. The tailgate also has a large rust hole near the bottom right corner. No rust or bondo on the bed.....no bondo on the body either. Everything else is in working order. I had to replace the alt, regulator, and dash bulbs..everything else is dandy Chrome wagon wheels with lame, wide, hot-rod tires. tires are new with less than 1500 miles on them, unfortunately I hate them :) Anyone need some rims and tires? They are going next week in favor of some 30x9.50's. on stock steel rims. Anyway paint is good (except where its rusty) and there is really no chrome trim outside of interior....pretty stripped model I guess. This is getting long so I will just ask....what do you think you would pay. I know its hard without seeing it but feel free to lowball. It will help me sleep knowing ,one way or the other, if I got ripped off or got a deal :) Thanks a lot Dan ------------------------------ From: Patrick687 aol.com

Subject: Re: C-6 jumped out of park Date: Sun, 12 Nov 2000 07:08:57 GMT okay, so maybe I forgot to mention that the truck was probably left in drive while it was warming up, (on acciedent of course) the tranny was in need of a rebuild, and would not do anything until the fluid (or something) had a chance to think about allowing the tranny to work. After this happened the first thing he did (after kicking himself in the a$$) was to have the tranny rebuilt. Runs great now... still waitin for '67 to fall into my lap though... BTW, what parts off of a '74 with power everything fit onto?(previous years) I ask this because a guy at work is trying to dump one that got rear ended. It has a 460, C6 and power everything, still runs but isn's driveable. The price seems right considering how much the stuff would cost at the local wreckin yards... anyhoo, thanks Tony _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.ford-trucks.com//lc/lc.php?action=do&link=http://www.hotmail.com.

Subject: Setting up danas Well I've spent the past 3 days mucking around with 2 dana 60's. I wanted to the get the D60 detroit out of the axle that came out of the back of my big truck (which had 3.54's) and get it and the rear disk brakes into another D60 I have with 4.10's. This rear would go into my green trail bronc (which is still sitting with no diff's in it). I figured that since I would not be touching pinion, I might only have to change backlash (carrier shims). Just for kicks, I swapped 4.10 ring gear onto detroit from 3.54 axle (knowing that carrier shims were probably going to be wrong) and stuffed it in 4.10 axle. Backlash was .012, which is .002 over max, but pattern indicated pinion placement was way off. I don't see how this could be since I did not touch pinion and gearset was the same that was already in it? Also, this axle had been run in a 78 F250 and it seemed fine then. I decided to see how hard it would be to set up my first dana. So I pulled 4.10 pinion out, pulled out rear pinion bearing race since pinion shims are located under it, and pulled off carrier bearings on old open diff. The old carrier bearings where honed out using an engine cyl hone. The outside of pinion bearing race was ground down by lightly forcing it up to a pinion bearing (by hand) that was located on an old pinion gear and pushing outside of race against grinding wheel. This allowed it to rotate at some relatively "even" rate and grind away more or less evenly on the outside of race. I now can swap pinion and carrier shims without pressing bearings/pinion race on/off. I'm thinking of using my original D60 housing as disk brakes are already on it, clips for holding caliper flex lines are welded to it, and spring pads were modified a while ago with 3/8 plate to make them strong and flat. That and the fact that I now have to set it up from scratch, makes using either housing of little difference. I finally broke out the 250$ pinion depth set tool I bought quite a while ago. Before I ripped out 4.10 pinion, I measured the distance between centerline of carrier and top of pinion. Nominal is supposed to be 3.125, then adding anything marked on pinion, which was a "+2" in this case. This would mean is should be 3.127. I measured 3.128, only .001 off. This should mean pattern should be pretty close, but pattern indicated I need less shim not more. I've deiced that the way dana's do pinion bearing pre-load is going to make it much easier to set up than diff's with crush collar. Set up pinion depth, then set pre-load with in-lb torque wrench, and tighten the heck out of pinion nut, your done :-). So I guess I'll be back at it today.

Subject: Dana 60 Rear drum removal? Ok gang, I know that some of you have Dana 60 rear axles. How in the world do you get the brake drums off? I know you have to remove the axle, I did that ok. There are supposed to be two bearing retaining nuts. The outer one came off with some large pliers but I can't get the pliers on the inner one. What size socket is required to remove this thing? I tried the local Pep Boys but all they had was 36MM sockets and larger sockets to remove the front hubs. Nothing for this #$%#$ nut. Any suggestions? All I need to find out is what size brake drum I need but I can't get the drum off to check the width of the pads. I need new drums on both sides. All the parts stores I called said it could be either 12" x 2-1/2" or 12" x 3" drums. How can I tell from the exterior which it is or how can I get the inner bearing retaining nut off?
