Does a Dana 60 usually show on a spid for a 1/2 ton?

Blazer1970 · 02-20-2008, 04:43 AM

No. AFAIK, the only D60s in 1/2 tons were in some big block trucks.

This truck appears to have been special order.

I have seen dana 44's in early GMC's, but never a dana 60 in a 1/2 ton.

60s in a half ton are extremely rare, i believe Wes at classic heartbeat had one some time ago. i personally have never seen one myself.

Some GMC 1500's had Dana 60's. It was a special version called a 60-35, and it was non-floating with 6 lug flanges. Only available with leaf springs, I think.

A rare find.

I think the guy at the driveline shop said it was marked 60B? He has owned the shop over 35 years and also said it was rare.
