Mr. Heep70, To clarify on tire wear, the tread wear is even (right vs. left) and does not seem to be happening any faster than on other cars I have in the vehicle corral. Perhaps in a dry climate, tire wear might be faster but here in Pacific NW- as you know, usually wet roads may be "lubricating" the contact surfaces and slowing the wear-out rate.

Mr. Spartman, I bought the Dana 60 rear end in a junk yard a really long time ago and it was already pulled out of the source truck. Sorry I can't elaborate on what model it came from.

I had Randy's Ring & Pinion do the gear change last year ($700 approx). I have a nice set of 4.10 gears for sale.

In life many men take the path of righteousness, some take the path many others follow (G.M. owners, for example), some take a more arduous path, some a simpler path. I, sir, took the PSYCO-PATH!!
