wheelinjp 10-09-2001, 08:44 PM I was looking at mosers site and was curious from your experience what big rear bearing choice is best? They offer a big ford and a big mopar which is the strongest for a 35 spline custom axle? Also which would I use for a 40 spline d60 custom axle? Which has the most common bolt pattern for aftermarket discs? Scout Dude 10-09-2001, 08:56 PM I'm not positive, but I think that the large Ford, new style bolt pattern would be the best. Old Scout 10-09-2001, 09:16 PM I used the Torino style that takes a set 20 bearing. I have Dutchman 1.5"/35sp axles. There 57.00/pr The ford motor sport 11" disc kit (M2300-G) is a bolt on with the torino ends. 71RCKCRZR RYAN 10-09-2001, 09:21 PM I HAVE A 60 WITH THE TORINO ENDS..... ALSO THE FORD EXPLORER DISC KIT WITH THE E BRAKE INSIDE OF THE DISC... EITHER FORD BIF BEARING ENDS HAVE A BIG BRAKE SELECTION .....JUST DEPENDS ON WICH SET YOU MATCH UP.. YOU CAN PICK UP A DISC KIT FOR WELL UNDER 500...EVEN WILWOOD DISCS ARE LIKE 450$ NOT SURE ABOUT THE 40 SPLINE SHAFTS...I KNOW THEY DONT MAKE A LOCKER FOR THEM ... wheelinjp 10-09-2001, 09:33 PM Thanks the 35 spline question was for Tankota and I have the 40 spline spool. I acctually got a d60 for free and when I opened it up there were Richmond 4.88s and a Strange 40 spline spool. I think for free I will pay the extra 100. bucks for the 40 spline axles. It works out perfect because I was planning a 4.88 gear swap anyway.

Its pretty simple. wheelinjp 10-10-2001, 03:24 PM Tankota I thought you knew John bought the TRM d60 kit and we patterned the brackets for the Monte or 70s caddy with the e brake I believe they are the same bracket. | |
