fucking sick man I've always wanted to go one year

interesting to see him using a Dana 60 though I would go Dana 44 for any serious off roading using a free floating axle can backfire if you're not careful

nope

dana 60 has way more beef, if you ever break anything in a dana 60 your doing it wrong

and the 60 and 44 are both full float and thats what we want, makes changing parts 100% easyer

Dana 44s are free floating now? my Dana 44s are def not free floating axles

and I've seen many people break dana 60s because all the pressure goes onto the axle housing and sometimes that's just not strong enough

but yes it does make working on them a shit ton easier and also performance a bit better

thats probably because your dana 44 is independant, im talking about solid axles and if you break the housing on a dana 60 something is way wrong

dana 44=half ton

dana 60=1 ton way stronger

no my Dana 44s are solid axle but old as fuck they are off an old International

the newer ones may be independent but I know the old ones (at least some of them) weren't

and I've seen many a people break the axle housing on Dana 60s especially in their dodges not saying they weren't being idiots but still surprised me that the housing cracked

ford has always made top of the line rear ends. dana 60 a 1 ton axle but it comes in quite a few 3/4 vehicles?
