Why would you use this axle? Was it really cheap?
IF you plan to drag race it with the hopes of getting into the 10s, I could see the appeal. The Dana 60 is nearly indestructible in a light car BUT it is heavy and takes HP to spin. Same with a 727 VS a 904. I had a buddy with a 340/416 Challenger that chose a Dana 60 before stepping down to an 8 3/4" axle.
Yeah, you can change the axles, brakes, fit a drive shaft and make it work but you are getting away from a CHEAP build. The axles alone could run you $400 or more. You could get an Explorer 8.8 from a self serve yard on a half price special for well under $200. That gets you disc brakes and the right lug pattern.
Good luck.
