If anyone has pictures of a 2000-2002 2500 with a dana 60 in the front. I would love to see them if you could please. Im currently working on a project and my towns junk yards are all out of them. What im looking for are pictures of the knuckles and brakes. I know they switched to the two piston calipers and have been told that the ball joints are mounted different starting in 2000. Just would like to see the difference. I have a 96 front 60 and know what that looks like. Just want 2000 and up. Thanks.

 

I'm pretty sure helm's truck is that new. He's quite a helpful fella, I'm sure he will set you up if he see's this thread.


Out of curiosity, what are you planning on doing? Why do you need the pics?

 

ill snap some shots tommorrow, i need to rotate my tires anyway, lol

 

Hey thanks man that will help a ton!!!.. and "olyelr" what im up to is the same axle i was a while ago. The 96 front 60 i want to put the 2000 up knuckles on... No one in town has been any help lol.. I had to put the project on hold for a little while my truck was broke into and i had to deal with that. But im doing my lift and axle swap this weekend so ill have pics monday. Just looking for this knuckle idea now so maybe next winter ill try and swap them..

 

Ah yes, now I remember. You want to end up putting the dual piston brakes on, correct? Sorry to hear about your truck getting broke into, that sux.

And yes, we all like pics, so when the swap starts make sure your camera has got fresh batteries

 

 

Thanks a ton Helms....but thats not what i wanted to see.lol...yes the ball joints are different and i cant just swap knuckles to do the dual pistons....looks like id have to change the C's...and Olyeir...yup thats me..lol...im staying with the stock set up i guess..but got half the lift done today and will finish tomarrow afternoon....ive got some good pics and ill get some more before it gets covered in mudd..hahaha....ill try to get them up sunday....thanks for the help guys..

 

hey guys its going to be another couple days before i get the pics up..i have to go back to work these next two days and the camera is at the shop..The lift and axle swap is done but we are on hold because of a nice foregin made banjo bolt that broke off in the caliper...also we had fun with making our own rear drive shaft and cutting alot out of the c.v. joint in the front driveshaft.. haha...we started thinking we would just get 5.5in lift outa the fabtech but realized that the offraod edition trucks already have a 2in lift w a coil spacer front so why not just leave it...haha but pics are comming soon..
