neone know alot about 14 bolt drw heres a chance to help....i got a 14 bolt for my 1 ton swap (still trying to locate a king pin dana 60 for front...)

but its from a dually wich sucks cause its a lot wider than the srw model.
im lookin for ways to convert it to a srw modle because its 72"wms to wms
its the 10.5 and has 5.13 gears, like i said if i can narrow it by swapping hubs ill be ok.


the exciting part is i have a well sought after 1 ton axle for my glorious 1 ton axle swap hello 42" ltbs....or h1 wheels and surpluss 37's...lol

thanks/...i read that and i actually feel smarter. i gotta go get the 14 bolt this weekend but i found a pair of dana 60's for free i just gotta go get em outa the truck...so idont know i guess ima start getting as many as possible and use what i need for spares sell em or what ever..never hurts to have 1 ton axles layin round..that makes is easier for more projects to happen,

keep and run the 60 front- sell the rear. the rears arent worth much unless you bore out the spindles and run 35 spline shafts. reference- http://pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=783214

well its like i said im using the 10.5 14 bolt, just gonna go ahead and get the pair if possible, i could always build the rear 60 for another project like my d21 truck, i could do a 1 ton swap on it...im really wanting to. 38's and tons on a soon to be bobbed and exo'd 97 nissan truck looks good to me. its my daily driver so ill be doing that next year.

but yea im really wanting to go with the 14 bolt rear and a king pin 60 but if i have to get a bj 60 the only diff is the aftermarket stuff..but thats growing for the ball joint 60's

the new-er BJ 60's have the metric bolt pattern, so you might want to snag the rear end that was w/ it, usually a sterling 10.5" [has factory disc brakes]
