What rear is this?

dodgedifferent2 · Oct 10, 2021

Picked up this rear axle which i thought was a dana 60. Took the guys word and did not think twice.

Ya i know stupid mistake. Glad it was cheap.

Anybody know what i have here?

Not a Dana 60 !! 9 1/4 i believe

72Dinger · Oct 10, 2021

9,1/4"? C-body guy could confirm.

That is an open 9 1/4, with what looks to be high 2, low 3 gear ratio. Quite strong rear end, and gears and lsd's are available, cause there's lots of them in trucks.
It does unfortunately use c-clips to hold the axles in . Not a problem stock, but in a hotrod application i would narrow it to the width i want, and then put 8 3/4-dana 60 /nine inch ford ends on it.

Looks like chrysler 9 1/4

Yep, 9 1/4. I have thrown away countless of those rears because nobody wanted them.

Out of a 94 up Ram. Has tone ring for ABS on carrier.

Build it and use it. It's pretty close to the Dana for strength.

The parts you don't add don't cause you no trouble
