What's the difference between all the different Dana rear ends?
35, 44, 60, 70, 80, etc? What's the difference between the truck and car Danas?

Also the "truck" Dana has no provision for a bolt on pinion snubber. Probably not much of a concern in a race car with other than stock leaf spring suspension.
A front Dana will probably be offset to one side. Also the amount it will cost you to rebuild, shorten, new ends and axles you could probably buy a built one.
I If I found a front Dana 60 from a truck, could I use that or are the front and rears different?
I also think the truck D60 have larger tube thickness. Some one told me the cars have a 1/4 wall thickness and the truck use a 3/8. I used a 3/4 ton chevy truck rear end and the tubes were massively thick! should of measured it.
