IIRC they make up to a dana 110, that size is a rear for 1 1/2 ton trucks. there are also the new AAM axles in new dodges and chevys although there is no aftermarket for them at this time. they are all 3/4 and 1 ton axles

Dont forget that Ford is putting Dana 50's in the newer F350 1 ton models.
My friend has a 2002 F350 with the turbo diesel, and it only came with D50 front and 3.73 gears.:banghead

Beerman,
Isnt that what they put in all their trucks now? I know some rangers have a 4.0L with 3.73:1 ratio

Yeah, but that's the ratio to have with a diesel. Get the 4.10, and your mileage goes to crap.

They started putting D60s in Stupid Duties mid-year 02 or starting 03... can't remember for sure. Not like it matters, it's got the puny neck-down shafts, unit bearings, and a metric pattern.

Isn't a Dana 50 just Dana 44 differential with upgraded knuckles/spindles...?:shrug
