From a mag I get this:
Centerline of axle to the pinion height is:
9inch = 2 3/8 below centerline
D60 = 1 1/8 below centerline
RC60 = 1 1/8 ABOVE centerline

Anyone have the figures for the following:
14 bolt = ?
D44 = ?
D70 = ?

Thanks,
Chad

I am mainly interested in how a 14 bolt compares in pinion height to a 9" and a D60. Higher, lower, in between???? What???

the 70 is the same as a 60 and the 14 bolt is closer to centerline then either of those i think if i remember right it is as close as you can get and still have a HYPOID cut gear once you are on centerline it becomes a straight bevel cut

Thats good to hear. I was under the impression that the 14 bolt was between the 9 inch and tyhe D60. If its higher than the D60 that is a good thing.:) Can any of you 14 bolt users confirm this?

Also, I saw some pics of Lakerats shaved 14 bolt. Like 2 inches came off. Anyone know how it is holding up for him?

Thanks,
