Re: Which drive train options denote HO52 vs Dana60?
Those ratings mean nothing to me. The HO52 was rated in the '40s when they first were used. The fact is the HO52 is stronger. At least that is my opinion/experience. What's 300# anyway, a passenger?
Yes there were coil spring Dana 60s. No 3.54 HO52s. 4.10 was the tallest gear offered. There was an aftermarket gear set in 3.90 offered at one time. Big whoop, not even a quarter turn gain for that expense and labor. Taller tires could make more sense.
