so just to clarify, the seller of the Dana 60 had the correct tapper bearings and adjuster when I bought it. I discovered that the passenger side axle flange was slightly bent. He sent me a replacement axle for the passenger side with press fit bearing. Now I have a miss match so I requested...
Hello Bob,
yes I have a hard copy and the online copy of the service manual. I too would prefer the original tapper bearing setup but I'm have to work with what I have which is now trying to convert both sides to have matching green bearings. I'll review the manual and try and determine how to...

Hi all,
I'm about to install a Proform electronic distributor and conversion kit on my GTX. I don't want to drill any new holes on my firewall to install the orange box. All the existing holes are used for ballast or voltage regulator etc.
Any recommendations on where? I understand the box...
