[orangefj45]

just to clarify my d60 front dilemma:
i have a dodge d60 front which utilizes 30 spline outer axle stubs. these are about the only weak point of that axle. normally, it's fairly easy to upgrade a d60 front to 35 spline outers. all you have to do is buy a pair of outer stubs and new selectable hubs or drive flanges, and you're in business.
on this particular style dodge d60 however, more work is needed to complete the 35 spline conversion. the hub section of my spindle is not internally splined, so there is nowhere for a hub to lock into. this means having to replace the hub with a gm couterpart in order to be able to run selectable hubs. i could run drive flanges but since i'm trying to keep this verys streetable, i do not think this would be a wise idea. the front driveshaft would always be turning, even at freeway speeds, and the front locker would'nt exactly help the handling caracteristics either.
so do i spend the extra $800 to do the upgrade or do i try to save a couple of bucks so i have some money left for my next project, the cruggy?!

keep in mind that i do not beat the crap out of my rigs anymore and one of my best friends, whitey, runs a big block powered fj45 with the 30 spline outers and no problems so far. been thru rubicon with it more than once. and i'm only running 37s and an auto to boot.
