    71 B body Dana experts

    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...

    appreciate that but my question is regarding the pin/button that maintains preload when using tapper bearings. Now that I'm switching to press fit roller bearings, I'm told that button/pin is no longer required but I'm unsure where it's located or how to remove it. Any drawings/instructions...

    Quick update on the Dana, the seller ended up sending me a matching press fit roller bearing instead of the proper tapper bearing. I'm going to go ahead and install it on the driver's axle so it matches the passenger side and I can at least start driving the car. One question, I understand...

    Thank you Bob. I don't have enough knowledge about these bearings so assumed that it would be okay. With yours and other recommendation, I think the best thing would be to get the seller to provide a new tapper bearing and adjuster for the passenger side to make everything compatible and correct.

    71 GTX Dana Install

    Hi all, just removed the 83/4 and installed the correct Dana60 on my GTX. Once I torqued the wheels on, the wheels are extremely difficult to turn while off the ground. If I take loosen the torque on the wheel nuts, it seems to improve. There was no binding or issues with the 83/4 however I...

    71 GTX Vapor return line/tube

    I called them, they won't separate just the tube for the engine compartment. The issue is due to the length of the entire kit, it ships as oversize and I'm in Canada so I get killed with duties and shipping costs.

    71 GTX Vapor return line/tube

    Hi all, does anyone have a vapor return line for a 71 GTX that they could measure for me? The section that installs in the engine bay on the passenger side inner fender is missing on mine and didn't want to order the entire kit.
