Anyone here upgrade their D60 30 spline outers to 35 with 35 spline lockouts? i am looking into doing this to mine, just wondering if anyone here has done it before!

Jason, check out this thread: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/s...2B%25252Bstubs

Chilly got a good price on his. I plan to do it in a month or two but somehow I always seem to be broke.

 

theres really 3 good options for the 35 spline outers....one is the stock spicer 35's...which have to be cut down .600, and a new snapring groove cut.
your next step up is the "Crappy" 4340 chromoly yukon's...they aint much more expensive than the spicers....i know they r stronger, but im not sure by how much.
your next step up would be the "bling bling" superior shafts....i dont even wanna know what they cost.
ohh heres some good threads to read....

ims till tryin to figure out if i wanna go yukon or stock spicer...ahh!

 

Ho, when you say superior shafts you're talking about these? http://www.polyperformance.com/superior_axles.htm

Somehow I get the feeling that the $325 price tag is not for a pair.

I think I'm going to give the Yukons a try. For $200 I can't go too wrong and I won't have enough horsepower to snap those until maybe next year. If I break them, THEN it will be time to get some Superiors. Hmm, scary thought but with those stubs, the locker I'm adding, etc. my front axle will be worth more than I paid for the truck.

 

awesome links...thanx. i hate you Ho....you know you are the biggest reason my wallet is so skinny I'm just kidding man I appreciate all the help!

welcome man

i cant help it, i lvoe to get people to buy cool stuff, especially when i cant

 

Ack, brainfart, nevermind. There is nothing wrong with any of the other options listed, but they seriously can't touch the superiors...

 

i cant touch superior's price, heh


superior or ctm=Bling Bling....or maybe doit camo style with sandy cone 300m gun drilled 40 spline shafts

 

I know, Camo makes me sick. He's got all the coolest stuff AND Lisa (his wife) is freaking hot! Sigh...I'm generally not ever jealous but I woudn't mind having his toys...

 

don't kid yourself Pro, you still be able to break those 300m shafts. and who is this camo?

 

Camo is on pirate4x4.com. Seems to have all the toys and parts everyone else just dreams about. How is this possible?

on the truck parts, lots of money. on the hot wife, he got lucky11
