Fishy, when you decide to yank that D60 out of your F350 you can just give it to me

Fo shizzle. Rockies make it simple if you want to go that heavy duty. Damn I wish they offered some gearing options for the 2.5's!

They have a lot of options. 6.72:1.

you were planning on a gear vendor overdrive, right?

well sounds like the easiest/best way to go about rear steer setup is to do the rockies! i dunno if i would want 1 ton's anyways, i think for a steering axle they are strong but i think overall (compared to all other axles) they are kinda weak. so rockies it would be! i appreciate all the info and i am glad to see this kind of tech b/c you really don't hear many folks doing a rear steer setup much less even talk about it!

i am gonna keep a sharp eye out for 2 front 2.5 tons rockwells and then it'll be AWN ...just not real sure what rig i would put them in cause my EB would be unstoppable with them but my trail rig needs them!

If you do put them under your 1 ton, i know where a good home for that front 60 would be but then again i should be getting an open knuckle front 70, but hey i could always use a spare.
