lol right

awwww damn i must have struck the whole nerve cell

slacked in my life huh ?
you dont know what my job entails or the stuff ive had to do on the job

sorry im not a factory zombie
i tried that in the 90s and wasnt for me

now you want to bring up the because i dont punch a everyday when power plants dont work on the units when they are making the most money in winter and summer
or you upset that i didnt do anything on the side when im off
well i use to before i got sick in 2016 but just so i could stay busy
now with my health issues and not healing right and busting my *f-wording back all my life you want to go after how i chose to live my life
i decided not to live beyond my means
ive been on a few jobs and have known guys that have died on the job because of falling or getting up ir died on the way to or from work
the thing is i dont *f-word you or anyone in your family so how i chose to live my life is my decision
and when its my turn to die i wont leave anyone burdened
ive completed everything i needed to do in my life when i helped take care of my mom until she died
i dont care what you think of me and never have

So I need the butthurt cream bro?
Step back and take a minute.

I'm going with the Dana 60.....

Why the fuch would you want A "better" axle than a 9" Ferd?
They are one of the best in the industry.
Ford was dumb for going to the 8.8" IMO.
Those are under a ton of hotrods of all makes, as well as almost all 1/2 ton trucks until the mid 80s.
Having said that, a Dana 60 or 70 semi/full floater is a different and higher class of axle.
Id still put a Ford 9" above a GM 10 bolt/chrysler 8 1/4" ANY day...

I thought you were a Jeep guy? Those low pinion 9s are tough on driveshafts in the short wheelbase 5s and 7s.

I prefer the Dana 44 Twin Traction Beam.

I honestly liked these also. The problems most people complained about were directly related to lack of maintenance. These were a very well though out front axle, and designed after the off road truck racing of the era.

Good one Adam.
Now they're arguing about diffs from an imaginary joke math problem.

I had one and I've worked on lots of them. They were kinda cool. It was a very forward-thinking design. For as many moving parts as they have, they are relatively easy to work on. The downside is that they didn't really ride any better than a coil sprung solid axle. I still the special camber bushing puller for them.

They could handle a lot of abuse in factory form as well. There’s a local off road shop that used to sponsor some Tuff Truck racers around here, and they were all running Rancho lifts with stock TTB front ends in those F-150’s and taking all the abuse.
