 Dana 60 ARBI picked this Dana 60 ARB up in a parts lot and have no current use for it. Looking for opinions as to if it would be okay to run it or not with the damage. Thanks

Re: Dana 60 ARB It's hard to tell from photos, but in all likelyhood it would okay. The risk is a crack propagating from that damaged area or internal damage you can't see.
If it were me, I would only run it in a front axle and pull the cover at occasionally checking any cracks forming. _________________ Cummins R2.8 diesel, ZF5, AtlasII, HP44/BB9, ARBs, coiled / linked suspension, 37" KO2s, full cage, bumpers, etc. Build Thread: Average 23.5 mpg, Best tank: 25.1 mpg |

Re: Dana 60 ARB I'm with digger. Not knowing how thick that section is makes it difficult to determine. I wonder if someone could TIG that hole in without distorting the case?

Re: Dana 60 ARB I'd be inclined to disassemble and check for internal damage. If the guts are good I suspect you could get a new housing.
