]2eDeYe Posted February 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 I wish. right now it's the stock housing with a 320 diff and 2" wheel spacers. :) The 60 will get a locker, gears and disc brakes. Should be bulletproof in this truck, then again I break stuff. :lol: 2 Quote Link to comment
SHARPSHOOTER280Z Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 What about an H233b? Basically a Nissan made Ford 9" Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted February 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 Is there a selectable locker available for the H233? The main drive for using the 60 is that it was free and I already have it, being a full float axle sweetens the deal as well as after market support. Lot's of cool stuff available for the dana 60.

SHARPSHOOTER280Z Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 There is, lots of aftermarket support for the H233b as well. Also, you'd be able to keep those bitchin' wheels! Quote Link to comment
Boxcar Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 The 6 lug 44 conversion is a no brainer as the 76 and later wags ran them up front....... Quote Link to comment

No electric locker available from what I have seen for the H233b and I'd rather not have to run a separate system for the air locker. That and it is still a single float axle. The 6 lug 44 conversion is a no brainer as the 76 and later wags ran them up front....... Ya, the front axle was taken from a 76 waggy. Looks like I can convert my 60 to 6-lug relatively cheap for the strength gain. http://www.ruffstuffspecialties.com/catalog/FLANGE60.html That flange allows use of 60 front spindles and hubs. I can buy that stuff already made in 6 lug from various mfg. Just need custom shafts, which I would be upgrading anyways. Quote Link to comment
