I'm rebuilding the 460 in my ,76 E-350
I ran the Vin# and it said it has a Dana 61 rear with 3.07 gears

I've heard of a Dana 60 but of a Dana 61, whats the diff?

Also does anybody know of a 70's Ford Van message board?

You may get a quicker response to your axle question by reposting it in the "Transmission and Transfer Case" forum.

I should think the "1967-1979 Ford trucks" forum covers vans through those years as well.

I beleive the 61 is a semi floating rear axle. Does not have the full floating hub like a 60. Bob:-)
