I have a dana 60 rear axel out of a f-250 with 3.54 gears. what carrier do I need to use to put 4.56 gears in it. I am pretty sure that the 3.54 carrier is not the right one. Is the 4.10 and lower carrier the one to use? Is there a differencein spacing in them? any info would help.
thanks
Chris

You will need the 4.10 and up carrier (numerically higher).

You can get a "thick" gear, which is made to work on your carrier.

You will need a 4.56-up carrier. It is often refered to as a 4 series carrer where yours is called a 3 series carrier. The break on a 60 is 4.56-up and 4.10-down. Like noted thou ther are some gear sets out there that will work with the carrier you has if you really wanted to keep it.

are there numbers to tell the difference between a 3 series and a 4 series carrier?
