The other guy 1967-72 c50 axle swap

[Drewbee]

I decided to start a different thread as IÂ’m not trying to overload anybody elseÂ’s.

I appreciate the information IÂ’ve been given and maybe IÂ’m just not understanding.

I do understand the basic information on the width of the spring perches and that the Dana 60 has the perch built into the housing.

I donÂ’t understand the c50 chassis, but IÂ’m trying to. Looking at it, the c50s are not like the 1/2 ton or 3/4 ton as they do not have a arms and coils. Instead, they have leaf springs over an axle beam. This makes me wonder if the Dana 60 and 14 bolt would bolt in. The other thing that makes me think itÂ’s possible, even though the frame is a different style, is that the same cab is used on these trucks as the smaller trucks (1/2 ton - 1 ton).

I have a 4x4 cummins build I was doing with my 72 but I may go a different route if it wonÂ’t be too much more effort.
