Dana 60 vs dana "super 60"
Hey folks, I could use some opinions
I have two rear ends and need help on which one should be narrowed and converted to semi float for my s10
I have a dana 60 30 spline open rear from a 95 ram 2500 and a dana " super 60 rear" from a 2006 savana 2500 g80 option with 33 spline axles I believe
basically I'd like to have one narrowed with Ford 9 inch bearings ends so I cause use semi float axles and 8.8 disc brakes..
The "super 60" has 3.75 axles tubes that are half inch thick but has an oddball diff cover with 12 bolts..
the regular dana 60 has smaller thickness and diameter tubes but has the normal 10 bolt diff cover..
my question is would the "super 60" be stronger with its stock diff cover and factory g80 lsd
or the regular 60 with an open diff with an lpw diff cover with the main bearing supports and axle tube braces? Maybe a spool?
any opinions, advise or help is very much appreciated, thank you
