Well I finally got to work on it a little again.I got the gears in the Dana 60 done.

Here it is with the cover on it.

My Pop got a set of disc brakes for the rear of his Ford pickup,he couldn't get a brake pedal he liked so off they came.He gave them to me,and with a few modifications I got them to fit on the Dana 60-2.It's a good thing too,because most of the 12 inch drum brake stuff it had is obsolete.

Here's a updated picture of what it will look like.
Thanks Jeff

I like it; I’m in the middle of something similar (Design wise).

Is it stock scrambler wheel base and shortened frame in the concept drawing?

I got out the only two bolts I had to drill.

The passenger side frame rail was leaning in a little at the bottom,I knew the heavy frame on my trailer would come in handy,a little back yard engineering,a couple of tie down straps,and a couple of come alongs along with a couple of home made bolt on "equalizers " 30 seconds latter it was straight again,this was much easier than when we did Nick's frame.It's within a 1/8" of being square also,so now I just have to finish some rust repair,clean and paint it.

Got most of the body mounts repaired today,just need to drill the holes,and they are good as new.
