Ok so I finally did something cool on my jeep. I now have a dana 60 in the back. I took it off a 1972 f 250. 4.10 gears. I sized it up and saw that the perches were only an inch off, so I bolted it up. The shackles are at a small angle. I will still need to have the spring pads moved. I am going to wait until I have a spool and rock crusher cover in my possession. for now I have a rolling chassis. I WILL NOT DRIVE IT LIKE THIS!!!!! I just need to have it rollable. My drive line works perfectly with no mods. Here are some pics.

I didn't pull a tape on the outside of the drums, however, inside to inside is 2.5 inches wider, the drums are probably an inch wider, so I would say 4 inches or so. The rims are free loaners. I am now on the search for a front 44. BTW Including buying my friend dinner and breakfast, gas, ect. I have less then $200 into it.
