dana 60 from a 76 f-350 30 spline, full floating. will this axle hold up to 42 or 44 in tires? Would I be better off with the 35 spline?

 

[Keith Strong]

It will hold.....for a little while

 

[CJredneck]

how much will it cost for 35 splines shafts

: Dr Evil : "One BIIIIIIIILLION dollars"

try pricing out a 35 spline detroit and some 35 spline shafts for it I am willing to bet you can find MANY different prices :flipoff2:

 

[Buba]

if strength is an issue, go w/ a 14 bolt.

 

[Mr.N]

Front or Rear?

 

[66CJdean]

35 spline shafts are about $320
a 14bolt would be cheaper and would come with 1.562 dia. axles not 1.310 like a 30 spline 60.

EDIT

Here are three pics comparing a 14 bolt FF shaft to a Dana 60 FF 30 spline shaft.
If money is a concern I would hunt down a 14 bolt instead. It won't be a hard search... I have three of them in my shop right now. You can find them all over the place.

I make bolt on disc brake brackets for them too. $100 CDN or $65 US

OnetonCJ: Nice kit. What would you estimate the final bill to be on a complete conversion? Do you suggest Wildwood calipers or just getting some 3/4 ton Chebby ones? What about hubs and rotors? Is there a rotor that works with a FF hub?

Thanks dood, I'm asking cause I'll be picking up a 14 bolt to start converting to replace my crappy dually 70.

Heres my 14 bolt hubs, I used '73 3/4 Chevy D44 front rotors($25/piece, Aimco Part # 5523) and 3/4 Chevy calipers from Autozone. I used shakerbuilts disk brake brackets:

Sorry, haven't been able to connect to POR last day or so.

The brackets are designed to use Chevy calipers (D52 style), and Chevy rotors with the stock 14 bolt FF hub.
The rotor pictured is from a 79 GM 3/4 ton 4x4 as are the rotors.
