Is the spring suppose to completely surround the cable from the entrance in the back to the end of the cable. Mine covers about half of it.

I installed new brakes/cables on my 1973 D60. I am having problems with the cable coming off in the drum. I tightened the cables and it still comes off when I release the brake. How can I keep them on?

I just did a break job on my truck with a dana 60. When I put the hub back on and tighten the retaining nut it will not turn. I can back off to about finger tight and it turns fine. Give me some ideas. I put a new seal in and packed the bearings.

What size is the nut that has to be removed to take the hub off? 2 1/2" or 2 9/16"?

I have a 1978 3/4ton 4x4 with Dana 60 rear axle and I am trying to get the right/left cables that hook to the brake pads. I have ordered some for a 3/4 ton and 1/2 ton 4x4. The 1/2 is too short and the 3/4 ton is too long. It needs to be around 8". Does anyone know what I need? I don't know...

I am not talking about outside of the hub. I am talking about b/t the fitting that slips into the back of the hub and the slot that it goes in. It is about 4-5 inches too short.

I have a DANA 60 3/4 ton rear axle. When I bought the truck the emergency brake cables were not hooked up so I removed the hub and put the cable on and they are too short. I am thinking these cables are for a 1/2 ton with whatever was in it. Are the cables different lengths or what? If so I...

whatever you buy, the heat wrap is cheap insurance b/c heat will really make one wear out quick.

I had the same problem and all you need is a $10 fix. Your exhaust is getting your starter hot. Buy a starter heat wrap and use 2 big hose clamps to keep it in place and your problem will be solved. I think I bought mine from Jegs or Summitt

I would go with Flowmaster. You can get a deep aggressive sound without the popping or crackling sounds that you are talking about. Go to their site and you can hear the different models.

Buck I sure like your truck. We must think alot alike. Look at my photo gallery. I only wish I had your motor. Mine is a 1978 F-250 (swb) 4-speed/429.

Can the crank and rods from a mid 70's 429 be used in a 429 scj block with 4 bolt mains? I have a 429 in my truck now and was wondering if I pick up a scj block and heads will the rest of my stuff work or is there more differences than I realize

Are you CRAZY????:hammer:

I have found a few scj blocks for around $1000. I think the only difference is it being a 4-bolt main. I am going to have to do something before too long and I can't make up my mind.
