Beef Up Your Axles
Two of the axles most commonly swapped into trucks are the Dana 44 (below) and Dana 60 (top), seen here. The Dana 44 has an 8.5-inch ring gear while the Dana 60 has a 9.75-inch ring gear. Dana 44s are also great front-axle upgrades for fullsize trucks and small Jeep-type rigs. The Dana 60 is preferred over a Dana 44 in the back, and they’re available as frontend units too. You’ll notice that the covers of the D44 and D60 look similar but that the Dana 60 is larger. Take care as you shop for Dana axles: Many of their covers look similar, so make sure you know what you’re getting before you buy. View Related Article
