As a 100% bonafied hillbilly (or a hack to some others) I'd build your own 60. Get a center section/housing from a Ford van or pickup (can find them factory with 2.76 [D61] through 4.10 gears). Narrow the housing to the width you want. Get a 35 spline carrier out of a D60HD, D70, or a front D60. Weld said carrier up. Get custom shafts cut from Yukon or Alloy USA for ~$130/shaft. You can do your own rear disks for cheap. I'd run calipers off an 80s Gbody/half ton pickup/P-series van and rotors off a standard cab half ton GMT400 pickup. If you plan carefully you can have a "brand new" axle for under $500.


I like cheap; cheap is fun. You don't mind it so much when you hurt it that way.
