Let me know what you want for it and what it would cost to ship to 75771 a business. I will check and see if we have greyhound close. Is it a GM rearend or a Dana rear end?

I have a couple about 4 hours east of Dallas. (Choudrant, La.) One is in a '69 2wd, and one (I was told) is out of a 72 3/4 ton 4x4. Both are Eaton I believe. I'm not sure what gear they have, or what shape they are in. $100 for either one, but I'd rather not ship.

Thanks HuggesrCS. Is the rearend from the 69 out of the truck? I am actually only about 2 hours from you. I am close to Tyler.

HuggerCST · 09-12-2010, 12:00 PM

No, it's still in the truck.

Is the truck parked where it will be easily removed?

Kinda.

It's in the back of my "junkyard", but I can lift the back with my tractor, and a do have a blue speed wrench. (cutting torch). If I can find time to pull it, I may be able to bring it to you in the next week or two. I may be making a trip to Dallas. I should know by monday. Would you be able to meet me near I-20 during the day? (weekday)

I have a Dana 60 FF rear out of a low mile 71 3/4T GMC. Non-posi with, I believe 3.54 gears. Comes with brake drums and everything. You pay shipping and I'll take $175.00. DP

**D.PASSMORE** · 09-14-2010, 05:48 PM

Its out of the truck - sitting in a old truck bed by the barn. I bought it years ago from Ed at Mothertruckers. I thought my Eaton HO72 was falling apart, but instead I had it rebuilt. What is up with yours? Is it a Eaton or Dana?

Thanks for the info but I was asking Hugger about his. I am going to pass on shipping yours for the time being. My Dana 60 is beyond being able to be rebuilt according to the shop. I also just had to replace the Dana 60 in my half ton so I am a little gun shy of a Dana rearend at the moment. I am going to find an Eaton if possible. Thanks again.
