I saw a link to a page where a girl swapped parts from a Ford truck onto the Dodge Dana 60. She gained conical bearings, locking hubs and bigger brakes.

She grabbed everything from the axle u-joints out: the stub shafts, steering knuckles, rotors, hubs and calipers. She documents the required mods to get this swap to work.

Anyone know the link? I tried searching and had no luck.

I have been collecting info for the swap, have about 1/2 the parts needed.

Been there, done it a couple years ago. Check my posts. Did a huge write up and posted it here.

 

Nice! I noticed she didn't have the dust shield before starting this...I accidentally left mine off changing the hub so I guess that shouldn't be any issue...
