Compatible years for DANA 60
I need a Dana 60 rear end for my 75 F250. Since it is getting harder to find parts for the 73-79 trucks, I was wondering if the Dana out of the newer trucks (90's) are bolt in.
Thanks.
Thanks.

I swapped a 10.25 out of a 1995 non abs truck into my 1979 with no major problem.
Had to enlarge the alignment hole on the factory block, open up the holes on the spring plate, and order u bolts. They were 9/16" x 3 1/2" x 10 1/2".
Didn't hook up parking brake brakes, so can't offer help there.

You can use a 67-79 rear dana. There were no dana 60 rear axles used in the 90's.

Dodge used Dana 60/70 axles until the bitter end in 1993. Can’t speak towards the compatibility.
Ford used dana axles up to 1985 or 86.
However, I was always told that the Dentsode frame width was much narrower and thus the axles would not mount without major fabrication.
