I have a front Dana 60, drivers-side, 4.88:1 out of a 01' Ford F450 for sale in the San Diego area. I'm not real keen on the idea shipping this one cause it weighs a ton, but if you're willing to pay the freight charges I might consider it. I bought this to use as a replacement for my Dana 30, but I decided to replace the axle with something else.

The axle is in excellent condition, but the hubs and tie rod are not there.

Gearing: 4.88
76" WMS to WMS

I called the Ford dealer and this axle would normally cost $4000+
Asking $1900 O.B.O.

Anyone need this one?

Dave aka Wolf

is it 8 lug or 10 lug?

It's an 8 lug beast. I forgot to put in the original post that the calipers are also not there..

Here is a pic of the axle. Apart from it being dirty from sitting around for ever and a few scratches on the diff cover it will clean up real nice...

2001-02 F450/F550 DRW (balljoint, metric 8x220mm wheel bolt pattern, unit bearing hub.........;) not std 8 lug

To be specific... yes, but I hadn't gotten that far.

Whatever it is I'm not gonna be using it.... :-D

I know the balljoints aren't anything you look for in a Dana 60, but I've never heard of the unit bering hubs. What is it and is it a good thing or bad??

Thanks,

they're a use/throw away item, they're average lifespan is roguhly 100k and are about $400ea to replace, and without machine work, and other modifications are limited to 30sp outers ;)

also, the metric lug patter does not fit a standard 8 lug wheel, it's just slightly off... along with this particular axle is a DRW unit :(
