Any lift on your truck? Did you use stock front leafs?

Cool! That's great to hear.

I used the spring pack that came with the donor axle. No lift it just leveled my pickup up! the only thing i had to change was the output yoke on the transfer case to match up with the drive shaft from donor axle. Big bad wolfe I didnt have to mess with the rear shaft at all.

If you find one jump on it!!! I looked for six months trying to find a deal but never did ended up finding one one hundred miles away and paid a little more than i had planned but I have no regrets!!!!!!

fmco_muddin, Did you notice a tighter turning radius with the Dana 60? I herd after the swap the turning radius was better. Thanks.

fmco_muddin 07-03-2008 01:31 PM

i guess i havent paid that mch attention to that. If it is tighter must not be enough to stand out
