Dana 60s are great traction aids, who knew?

Backed up out of my driveway over 2-3" of snow, open rear diff, mallterrains, in 2wd. Maybe I should just leave it in the bed forever.

If my leaf springs would take it, I'd throw the kingpin 60 in there too and see how it did. It's already bashing the bumpstops every time I hit a pothole so I'm not trying that right now :wow:

J10 took 2 kp 60's like a champ.

Hell, it took a bed full of water like a champ too.

Those leaf springs did end up under a comanche actually... all he had to do was relocate the front hole in the leaf hanger about an inch, axle was centered and shackle angle was titties.

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

That's the wonder of an auto trans.

I had an AW4 in my storage unit for 2 years completely drained, pan had been off it and cleaned out, regasketed. Hung it from one bellhousing bolt hole on my engine crane for TWO DAYS, over a drip pan, and got an irate call from the storage lot manager asking why it appeared the exxon valdez was berthed in my unit. Went there to investigate and the trans had leaked several quarts out, made the engine hoist leak down, tipped the drip pan over, and spilled the ATF all over the floor.

:huh:

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

Yup, had that happen to my 1/2 ton.

Cheap any easy fix thankfully. Better than Fords that mount rusts out.

My old 1/2 Silverado.
Also did a set on my father's old Dakota.

The PIA about the Fords is the rivets.

Wait... you bought Jordans Burb?? Cool!!! That thing is comfortable to drive, and pulls pretty well too. I used it and his trailer to take my MJ up to Rausch when I sold it to the park manager.
