Dana 60 0r 70
Looking to put a DANA 60 or 70 under the rear of my 74 K20 and I was wondering is there any difference in widths of a Dana 60 from a single axle truck as opposed to a dually or is the only difference rims and lugs, axles from a dually.

Re: Dana 60 0r 70
Why do you want to change out the 14ff?? I'd rather have that over the 60 or 70, in less you want to go dually, then get a 70.

+1.....I see no reason to run a 60 over a 14.

Re: Dana 60 0r 70
Well the main reason I am asking is I am trying to get rid of my 10 bolt up front and put a dana 60 up front and most of the axles around here are sold in pairs. They seem to be getting very hard to come by I can buy a dana 60 front with a dana 70 rear but it's only a package deal, oh well just keep lookin.

Re: Dana 60 0r 70
You should just get that combo, the 70 has been said too be stronger, and a rear 60 is weaker than 14bolt from waht I have heard.
