What to do with Dana 60?
I picked up this old GMC for parts last month. I took what I needed out of it and then scrapped it as it was as rusted as I have ever seen.
One of the parts I got out of it was a good Dana 60 rear. Should I sell it and get some money to immediately put into my 72 K20 build (already has a 14 bolt) http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=239487 or should I save it and put it into my 71 K5 Blazer and replace the 12 bolt? How much are these things going for? Thanks, -Tim

Re: What to do with Dana 60?
I guess I wouldn't bother changing the rear in the blazer, you will have to deal with the 8 bolt wheel problem. We bought a Dana 60 posi with 3.54 to replace the Eaton 4:10 open unit in our C20. Since the highest ratio in the eaton is 4:10 and many had 4.56, the Dana is the best way to get a decent rear ratio, and many came with posi also as a plus. Check the ratio in yours, and list it for sale.
