i want the dodge military axles w/ drive flanges
I think some of the mid 70's dodges with 203's had drive flanges up front...can't really remember though.
only if it is srwQuote:

78-92 chevy d60 it is!
...or whichever dodge ones are good too.
i passed on a chevy 1 ton dually saturday that had a 454, 4 speed, 205, front 60 and not for sure on rear end for $650 at a auction. it was driveable to. they also had a 83 toy 4x4 that didn't run to good and it went for $800.
bastard! that could have been my tow rig. Any idea if it is still available?Quote:

yeah, I've been to a couple of those car and farm auctions. I've seen several 2.5 ton rockwell trucks go for under 500 bucks a piece, a FJ40 for $700, and several EBs in various states from $300-900. The funniest was a K30 single cab 4x4. It was decent looking, but the afternoon before the auction I stopped by and crawled underneath it only to find someone had yanked the D60 and swapped in a 10 bolt. The u bolts were only hand tight, the driveshaft was tied up with bailing wire, and the shocks were only hanging there. The next day I saw 2 guys get into a bidding war over it simply because they saw the one ton tag on the side and thought it had a 60. Neither one had the slightest clue what it actually was
well go be me an uglytruck and I dont need to knowQuote:
