Re: Expensive lessons learned from my 4x4 build
i have seen and repaired a lot of half ton and 3/4 ton fronts in my time . . . my 1st ever dana 60 is now under its 4th truck since i got it in 2002 ish .
i work / daily drive / tow rig / off road play toy up to 38" tires / plow snow 8ft and 9ft wide fisher plow tipping the scale at almost 950lbs for the 9ft / its done a lot and all on stock shafts / gears / just a full refreash when i got it with seals and grease and oil . i have tried to blow it up in 4low doing doughnuts on blacktop with the 9ft plow hanging off the front . . . mud with them 38" swampers . . . this axle just keeps going and dont ask me for much in return . now i went threw 2 3/4 ton 44 fronts in 6 months before i got the 60 and then it was only 36" tires . . . as said buy 1 time . build it with good parts . and run it .
