ok so im gathering up all my parts to start building shortly, ive got a hp 60 for the front and a regular 60 for the rear , the question i have is for you guys running a 203 205 doubler setup what is your rear driveshaft like , ill be running 5.5 lift with this doubler havent got the adapter parts yet but it looks like it will be WH for the 435 to 203 and JEB for the 203 205 adapt. i have a whole pile of hp60 fronts and could cut one up to make a hp rear if it would make a big difference in drivline for the rear. oh yeah the rear axle is also moved back about 4 inches. thanks hope this all is understandable, im asking here because it seems like a lot of similar aimed buildups here .

I can measure mine tonight but I think my rear drive shaft is around 32 inches long. I've moved my rear axle back 4 inch also. I've been looking for a long time for an empty front D60 housing to build a high pinion rear out of but can't find a reasonably priced one anywhere. Do you have an extra one that you want to get ride of?

well i keep looking at your truck crawlin68 to try to guage the rear driveshaft angle and a guess since i have the rears laying around here and the access to the machine work i think ill give the high pinion 60 rear axle a shot i figure i can only improve from the reg 60 rear. i do have a lot of complete hp60 front axles so when the smoke clears ill let you know what ive got it prob wont be too much to ship just the center. ill keep you guys posted. john

Originally posted by Delta 4 WheelI have a FF 9" 31 spline. Just as strong as a 35spl. semi float. I beat it with 40's and have never had an issue. I do run flanges as the hubs are crap back there. I also have the regular banjo housing that has plenty of clearance....especially compared to the 60.

Originally posted by crawlin68Hey Fordnut, just wondering if you had a chance to go through your parts to see if you had an extra HP 60 housing or center section? Thanks.

Originally posted by fordnutit looks like right now i have a complete hp 60 ill be cutting up for parts this weekend ill post what ive got when the smoke clears, im located in new jersey but just a center or knuckles shouldnt be too bad to ship.
If you have the center left over, I'll buy it from you. Hopefully the shipping on the just the center section won't be too bad. Let me know.
