Dana 60 full float rear bearing master kit??

Does anyone know who sells a Dana 60 full float rear bearing master kit??

I'm looking to rebuild my hubs with new bearings, races and seals when I do my rear brakes

I've seen several sellers post on eBay saying that the D60 rear end full floater uses the same bearing from 1977.5 to sometime in the 1980's... Not sure how accurate this is. Some even say that the kit is made for mid 80's to mid 90's Dodge trucks with a Full Float D60 rear end too.

Want to verify some things before I purchase anything (this is where you come in!).

Any suggestions on master bearing kits?
Correction, I am looking for a master spindle bearing and oil seal kit for the rear D60 on my 1979 4x4... apparently I was searching the wrong terminology??

All the bearings and races have a BIN (Bearing Industry Number) stamped on them. These are the numbers auto parts stores and bearing shops go by.

I'm not aware if auto parts stores sell a bearing and seal master kit, I know that Ford did not.

And 77.5 only refers to 1977 F250 4WD's, as the last High Boy was assembled before serial number Y20,001 that occurred in mid-model year (February) 1977.

F250 2WD's used the same Dana 60 rear axle as 4WD's, but the 2WD's came with several ratios that 4WD's were not available with.

1967/79 F250 Dana 60 axle bearings/races are the same. 1980 and later are different.

2) C7TZ-1240-A .. Inner & Outer Bearing / BIN: LM104949

Great info ND!

I found out after I posted that I'm actually calling the bearings I'm looking for by the wrong name.

What I'm looking for is a kit to replace the spindle/hub bearings when I modify my brake system to full discs.

I figure it's a really good time to replace/inspect the races for the taper bearings, the bearings themselves, and likely replace everything so my truck runs/drives smooth on its rear end.
