    4l80

    Just something to think about before you buy that used converter. Pull the trans pan and see if there is any significant pieces of clutch material in the bottom of the pan. If there is I'd suggest skipping getting the converter, as it will also have material in it, and would need to be flushed...

    machining drw d60 hubs

    You can still buy NEW Dana 60 hubs with rotors from RockAuto. My pair arrived today in plain brown boxes so I can't tell if it's USA or ? made. They look as good as any other rotors/hubs I've bought recently, here's the part # 177703.

    machining drw d60 hubs

    here's my .02 If the email I have is correct you can still buy new Dana 60 hubs with rotors, as I have ordered a pair. They are listed as $171 each without shipping. As soon as they arrive I will check them over and post a reply with part#'s if they look worth the money. Just waiting on FedEx.

    3208 cat engine

    take a minute to look at those Detroit 4-53 swaps. That engine is almost the same size as a Cummins 6BT/ISB (Dodge truck). Trying to find something to make your truck unique is a job in itself. I wish you luck no matter what you choose to do.

    Locker Shootout

    since hirschdalechevy mentioned limited slips units, take a minute to look at the TrueTrack unit. I've got one in the front axle of a 3500 Ram diesel (not stock). I've driven it with the hubs locked in 4Hi on snow and it pulled very well, even turning was smooth. You could feel it shift power to...
