WTB 8 lug leaf spring rear end
They shop called and said the rear end is not even fixable. I need to find a replacement in good condition. Please let me know the raitio if you know. Prefer DFW area.

Let me know what you want for it and what it would cost to ship to 75771 a business. I will check and see if we have greyhound close. Is it a GM rearend or a Dana rear end?

Re: WTB 8 lug leaf spring rear end
I have a couple about 4 hours east of Dallas. (Choudrant, La.) One is in a '69 2wd, and one (I was told) is out of a 72 3/4 ton 4x4. Both are Eaton I believe. I'm not sure what gear they have, or what shape they are in. $100 for either one, but I'd rather not ship.

Re: WTB 8 lug leaf spring rear end
I will keep it in mind. I am going to look for one that is already pulled but I may get back with you.

Re: WTB 8 lug leaf spring rear end
I have a Dana 60 FF rear out of a low mile 71 3/4T GMC. Non-posi with, I believe 3.54 gears. Comes with brake drums and everything. You pay shipping and I'll take $175.00. DP

Re: WTB 8 lug leaf spring rear end
Is the truck parked where it will be easily removed?

Re: WTB 8 lug leaf spring rear end
Its out of the truck - sitting in a old truck bed by the barn. I bought it years ago from Ed at Mothertruckers. I thought my Eaton HO72 was falling apart, but instead I had it rebuilt. What is up with yours? Is it a Eaton or Dana?

Re: WTB 8 lug leaf spring rear end
Thanks for the info but I was asking Hugger about his. I am going to pass on shipping yours for the time being. My Dana 60 is beyond being able to be rebuilt according to the shop. I also just had to replace the Dana 60 in my half ton so I am a little gun shy of a Dana rearend at the moment. I am going to find an Eaton if possible. Thanks again.
