Dana 60 question

Alan Roehrich · 08-14-2016, 07:12 PM

We had that same trouble with the Dana 60 in Scot LaMar's SS/EA car. I went to put a 5.38:1 Richmond Pro Gear in it, and we found that the spool had a lot of runout. Mike Welfel was able to true it up for me, and the gear went in fine. I even swapped to a lightly used 5.57:1 gear with no trouble a little later. Mostly because it took me 6 months to find a 5.57!

I suppose at some point, that car will get some sort of 9".
