Pic(s) Wanted - Dana 60 under C20 - Coil Spring - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Green Machine · 05-12-2008, 04:59 PM

Trying to install a Dana 60 coil 8 lug rear under our 1971 C20, originally had the old style Eaton. Having a few issues, original track bar is to long and brake hose is too short. A few pics might help me figure this out, like where the brake hose connects to the rear and comes out of the frame. Might be some differences between the suburban setup and the truck. Any pics would be helpful. I might ask for a measurement of two also if you don't mind.

Thanks.

I don't have coil springs but when I put the 14 bolt under mine I had to have a new rubber hose made as mine was too short also.

Hope these help. When I purchased the rubber brake hose it was specified that fit a DANA 60 and it was longer then one for other rears. It's going over 100 degrees here today so there are some shadows.
