Dana 60
Friend has a Dana 60 laying around off a 79 Ford 250
My question is, would it be a good Idea to use it if I can not find a 8 3/4 end if I'm going for a beefy 360? I'm aware some recommend those only for big blocks and such but others have em with SB, shoot I'll maybe even save up for a supercharger to go with the 360.
My other question is, how long should the Dana housing be if I want to put in wide wheels in the back, I'm afraid this Dana is too short all ready... picture doesn't serve well right now will take some tomorrow...
I think its 51 1/2 long flange to flange
I can get this for free because I help out the guy in his shop that's why I'm considering, and I know it's pretty much the same price ranges to rebuild this as with a 8 3/4
Plus the extra 50lbs at the rear will do the dart good yeah?
