dana 60 and dana 70 military axles. 5:87 gears

I got a dana 60 front and dana 70 rear end, military axles. 5:87 gears. Came under a 84 k10 I just got. With a set of military 34" tires on them. Go big on the cheap. Gives you about 5in lift just by bolting them on. Has crossover steering. Rear purches angled for a lift. I just called a military surplus and they get $850 just for a front axle. I just want my money back as I want to go in a different direction. Will take $650 Below is what the axles would have originally came out of. same wheels and tires included.

Are you sure thats not a closed knuckle Dana 70 front? Usually the M715 has a 70 front with 5.8? gears.

A good crossthread is better than Loctite any day.

Life is not about what you have, but who you have to share it with.

Closed knuckles means headache, this axle is not as good as other open knuckle king pin D60s.

I agree its not as good as open knuckles.... but the price reflects that. Please keep your negative comments to yourself.
