Re: Flipping a dog Dana 60 for my Chevy?

Dodge should be driver side drop, chevy np205 should be passenger side drop. Switch transfer cases, don't flip the axle. As well as being a lot more work to flip the axle, the pinion bearings won't get lube because the splash lube passages are wrong. I strongly doubt you can even fit High Pinion reverse cut gears in that housing.

It's a ball joint D60 with a vacuum operated axle dissconect and unit bearings, so you got it cheap because it's not desirable.

Use a later chevy transfer case with the driver side drop.
