Jeep itch 08-19-2007, 05:59 PM I see that 7.17 is available for D-60s Can you run 7.17 in dana 60s w/ 39.5s and agressive rock driving; without likely pinion failure? hardline04 08-21-2007, 03:15 PM Fred Williams ran 7.17s in Clampy during the UA offroad and on the highway and didn't seem to have any troubles that I recall. biggin 08-21-2007, 03:36 PM I rode with a guy in tellico a couple years ago that had 60's and 7.17's. He ran a tired 4.3 and 44 tsl's. He seemed to get around pretty well and hammered on it alot. 84 Sheepdog 08-21-2007, 04:20 PM My buddy runs 7.17 in his 60s with 42s and he has broken everything on his rig but a ring and pinion.:D UCTJ 08-21-2007, 04:20 PM A friend of mine has them in his YJ with 37s and a 4cyl.:eek:. He doesnt drive it on the street everyday but he does run it on the street and does lots of trails never heard him talk of any failures. hperiman 08-21-2007, 09:19 PM Whats top speed with those 14 MPH. Action Fab 08-22-2007, 06:12 AM I have 6.16's in my buggy. they are Beef. I bet the pinion is still bigger than a D-44 3.73. I'm not afraid B3nMJ 08-22-2007, 08:12 AM Whats top speed with those 14 MPH. I was thinking more like 30, bouncing off the rev limiter. gottagofast 08-22-2007, 08:38 AM maybe in low range...... it wouldn't be that bad... 117 mph at 5000 rpm in high range with a .7:1 overdrive 2561 rpm to run 60 xjweeble 08-24-2007, 06:53 PM I have a set of D70s with 7.17s in a center articulating 4 ton NH loader. Broken front pinion teeth once in about 10 years of abuse. Possibly bc its not RC | |
