Well the Dana sixty does have a carrier break, you must have a late production 2002, a few d60's did make it under toward the end. Your rear axle does not need a new carrier. Think of it as a blessing in disguise, that opens up lots of options for your front axle.

Nice pictures Mark and Rich. A little piece of me died looking at those. Man I miss it! Oh well, next year can't come quick enough.

Looks like another hundred bucks or so Andrew. Gears should be a wash.

DANA 60 CARRIER/ SPIDER GEARS/ SMALL PARTS

I would go back to where you bought the gears, should be able to set you up with a carrier as well.

So I pull in to school and there's about 4in of snow and I left it in 2 because the roads weren't bad. And I pull around and there's a jacka$$ that's playing around in the parking lot and almost hit me. If he would have I wouldn't be sitting in school right now...
