budget dana 60

That is a lot for $110.

This is the second housing I have had them do for me - first 12 bolt went in my race car and now this one for the Duster. I also ordered my Moser axles through him so he made a little there. $465 for 35 spline axles and bearings didn't seem terrible to me. Pretty sure I put all that in my build thread. Long and short of it - plan on building any kind of performance capable rearend better plan on spending around 1K. Sure you can go cheaper and do a junk yard swap, but at the end of the day if you really plan on beating on one - spend the money 1 time and not worry about it again. These guys mail ordering S60's for thousands of dollars blows my mind
