yjw/350 08-11-2006, 12:04 PM hey guys i've never worked on a ford other than swappin a tranny w/ a friend and dont know much about them, i have come upon a guy in my neck of the woods selling a sterling 10.25 and a d60 KP outta a 88 f350 w/ 410s for 900 bucks, they are complete disk to disk and drum to drum and i checked um out and they look pretty nice, should i jump all over this deal?? what is the sterling compared to in strength? 60? 70? 14b? plug ugly 08-11-2006, 12:20 PM yeah, Id jump all over that. sterling will have lots of info on PBB if you search for it. its a good axle GubNi 08-11-2006, 12:40 PM That's a pretty decent price. The sterling is similar in strength to a 14 bolt. Fordman500 08-11-2006, 01:02 PM Sterling is like a 70 or 14b. Its a great axle u shud jump on that deal. TacomaJoe95 08-11-2006, 01:21 PM Thats A Great Deal I Recently Bought That Same Set Up For A Grand. That 10.25 Is As Strong As A Dana 70. Has Big Bearings, Thick Tubes, and 35 Spline Axles. That One Will A Limited Slip. I Welded Mine Put In 5.38 Gears. I Complety Shaved The Entire Bottom For Extra Clearence. The Only Problem Is The Stock Diff Cover Is Paper Thin. Great Lake Off Road Sells A Sweet Thick One And Disk Brake Conversion. I Installed Both On Mine Looks Killer. plug ugly 08-11-2006, 05:10 PM GLO's disc brake kit is not great. GMCTruxrule 08-12-2006, 05:54 AM Sterling is like a 70 or 14b. Its a great axle u shud jump on that deal. Good axle, the 14 bolt has a thicker pinion shaft which makes it a little stronger, but the Sterling is good. NetBSD 08-12-2006, 05:58 AM that d60 is worth the 900 alone, atleast in my parts a d60 KP goes for 1200 and your lucky if its complete, from what ive seen the 10.25 is a real good axle, i never ran one because i got my 14bFF dirt cheap ($35 :flipoff2: ) jump on the deal or tell me where its at so i can yjw/350 08-12-2006, 09:15 AM the guys actually got 2 sets of the 60 front sterling rear if anyone is interested in the other one let me know NetBSD 08-12-2006, 02:24 PM the guys actually got 2 sets of the 60 front sterling rear if anyone is interested in the other one let me know wheres it located, i need a d60, driver side drop TacomaJoe95 08-12-2006, 11:26 PM GLO's disc brake kit is not great. I had lots of problems with mine. Once I worked them out they work fine. Still worth the money. bearfoot_25 08-12-2006, 11:32 PM Yep you should jump on that deal. n_colonna 08-12-2006, 11:57 PM I did that swap in my '95 Bronco. It has been excellent! Do the 35 spline outers on the 60 for increased strength. $900 is a great price! | |
