So i just finished a search, and found a wealth of information on dana 60 swaps... The only thing is, I couldnt find many threads adressing the ups/downs of particular manufacturer's high steer arms. My axle is a an 89' ford kingpin hp60. So far Ive deduced this much:
Blue Torch Fab: Looks stout, but is a bit pricey, and has more parts to purchase.
Sky Manufacturing: Very Simple Design, Solid chunk with no kingpin caps, and built in zerk, middle of the pack pricing.
Crane High Clearance: Very beefy looking, worth the price, and beautifully machined, but has interlocking design so that they only work with "their" knuckles... I dont have an extra 700 bones for knuckles.
OTT: All around decent, good price, but not very trick and dont seem as strong as some of the others.
Dedenbear: Awesome stuff, stout as hell, but expensive to boot. Another company who wants you to use their "knuckle/arm" combo.
Poison Spyder: Seems like one of the best bang for the buck values, but the company has a bad rep in my local 4x4 community.
What other manufacturers are out there who i havent adressed, that are worth a look?
Mainly what I would like to know is... who's running what, who's broke what or has seen it break, and what would be the strongest, most reliable setup, without having to sell my organs to pay for 'em... ?????
