I have a 96 F-250 and I'm going to swap a D60 into it, the 60 has 4.10 and mine has 3.55 gears. Any tips on getting a new 3.55 ring and pinion for my front? Im getting both front and rear both with 4.10's so for the time being I'll put both in and see how it drives compared to the 3.55's.
Thanks. |

I believe my 5th is .77 but ill drive it for a while and see how it runs I ran many miles in a Chev 1 ton, no overdrive, 4.56 gears, 30ish inch tires. Went down the road at pretty high rpms, still got 10 mpg like it did with the 3.73s and the engine didn't mind it one bit. 4.10s will treat you good |

Are you swapping the front axle to get rid of the IFS Dana 50 axle? |

I can't imagine why you would ever go with 3.55's. 4.10's will be fine for anything you want to do. You will not be able to pull much with 3.55's.
If you are dead set on it, don't waste your time or money. Sell the D60 for $900 and buy another D60 with 3.55's in it. They aren't rare, and you'll sell it on the first day you put your ad up. If you weren't 2000 miles away I'd trade you straight up for mine. 3.55's suck. |
