Dana 60 rear spindle nuts - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Meatman · 12-02-2011, 01:07 AM

What does the Dana 60 rear in my 68 3/4 ton have for spindle nuts? Are they are regular nut or are they the six prong?

From what I have put together

Eaton HO52 and Corporate 14 bolts---six prong
Dana 60s--regular nut that is like 2 9/16"?

Is this correct? Just want to make sure I have the tool I will need when I do my brakes.

Thanks

They have double nuts (2) on each side. 2 9/16 i believe. I can check further on the size if you need me too !

p/s
you can switch them out also if you want a different style there interchangeable new to old styles. i change modern 14 bolt ff rears to old double nut styles, i think older is better personally.....
