Default !!Stange DANA 60 is in!!

Just some pics of the S60. I also bought 15x10 and 15x3.5 Prostars w/ M/T Drag radial in a 275/60/15. I also have a Qa1 setup in front so I lowered the setup about 2inches in front and had some Eibach Sportline springs laying around and installed them. As for the clearance w/ the S60 w/ the sportline springs, well it is pretty much rubbing the stock plastic tank but I'm going to see what I can do about that. Other then that, all is well. I will have pics of the car very soon so u can see the stance.

Looks like mine! You might want to put a coat of paint on that rear, before you bolt it up in there, it'd be easier than if it was already installed..The raw material will rust pretty quick, if not. What "guts" did ya end up with?

I dont have a rubbing issue, and Im lowered too..Im running the LG Hyperco springs.

I did paint before the install, I just opened the crate and snapped the pics quick. Went with a trutrac posi, 4.10 gear, and 35 spline shafts.

Yes, I had to. Was told to use the inside bolt pattern, and cutting was the only way. I can get a detailed pic if need be. The torque arm is a adjustable BMR. I will also try and get a pic of the spot that is almost hitting.

I just got my dana s60 in and installed. I had to cut the t/a or it would hit the tunnel my car is not lowered. My t/a hit my speed sensor and broke it when installing it. That is what happens when you get in a hurry. I am very happy with fit and finish of the S60. I had a Moser 12 bolt before this and the S60 is much quieter yet it does whine a little.
