Are you talking about using swapping axles or using D60 gears in what you have? If you want to swap axles D60s are great but D60 gears will not work in any axle that ever came in a bronco from the factory.

D60 gears only fit a D60 period. so i suggest you hold off on spending money on your current differentials and do the gears when you install the D60's.
