I broke the reliable 10 bolt so im looking at new rearends. I know about 12bolts and 9". This new dana 60 by strange seems to be the way to go. some people dont like the whine. I see the dana 60 with a new chrome moly DS is cheaper than a 12 bolt. Why should i not go with the dana 60. this is by no means a DD mostly track and sunny day drives. i had 3:42s in a 2 series carrier and they would wine so i dont mind them and the weight isnt too severe and seem to be way more efficient than the 9" which i have ruled out for my application. Any input on these rears. I know there is alot of post on them but most are just about them being noisey. Has any one had any big issues with them like breaking. I plan on doing 373s also

Thanks guys

with the right internals youll never break a D60, and for the cost you really cant pass it up either..

I heard reports on LS1Tech that the case material is soft causing shifting or movement. This messes up the pattern on the gears and causes noise.

 

I heard that too, so I am waiting to see if they fix that, and hopefully get in on a GP towards the end of winter, early spring at the latest!
