Thank you

I have an 84 K5. 305/700r4 BONE STOCK THe body is great in spots, and terrible in others, but i picked it up for $750 so what can you expect. The motor is perfect however.

Hey thanks for all your help. I think yours just all works together. I really like the Brown paint job as well.:D

Sounds like you have a great platform to start with, and $750 is hard to beat, especially if its in relatively decent shape...like it runs.

Try GM Parts Direct. This link should be for the D60 SRW hub & rotor w/studs for $119.31 ea. Try a search of your own to verify.

Shipping will prolly be a lil bit but this is THE CHEAPEST I have ever seen 60 hubs by a long shot.

All the internals are the same.

Sorry to hijack the thread, but that's amazingly cheap. I've ordered from gmpartsdirect before but don't know how to search for parts on it without numbers. how much is the D60 SRW hub without rotor and studs? Or for future reference is there a good site that has gm part numbers with exploded diagrams. thanks in advance.

Did a search, guess they only sell them as a set anymore. Just ordered a set, thanks man!

I converted my drw front to srw i bought hubs and rotors from a guy on ebay if you look under dana 60 in car@truck parts he often is running ads i paid $199 a side free shipping
 
Just made an order to GM Parts Direct for a pair of D60 SRW hubs/rotors. Shipped to my door for $318.62.

Then once I get these in, I gotta post up the DRW hubs/rotors for sale to offset the cost.

Anyone be interested in these after I get them swapped over?
 
One showed up yesterday, the others arriving today, GM box, everything looks good. Is the price going to stay this cheap? just buying good rotors gets close to $90.
 
I paid for one rotor from Car Quest at the same cost of the hub/rotor assembly from GMPD.

Mine should be here anytime right now. I will post up pics once FedEx drops them off.
 
Ok, FedEx was just here. Got both hubs/rotors in now from GMPD for $318.62 shipped to my door.

Yep, sure do. Direct replacements for the DRW bearing hubs/rotors.

How much for your DRW hubs? If cheap enough and shipping doesn't kill me I may take them off your hands. I really don't need rotors with them and that would help with shipping. Shoot me some pics if u get a chance, thanks.

Cool thanks for posting that for me. What are you putting your D60 in?

I'm taking one out of a DRW truck to resell as a SRW.

I don't know what they go for as I've never sold a pair like this. I thought $200 for the pair complete with rotors would be ideal but as I said, I've never sold nor bought some like this except for the new ones I just got now. What are they worth? I haven't checked to see what they go for on eBay for an average price idea.
They are still under the truck right now, fastened to the D60. Yes, a tire still mounted to them, too.

Well, there's a set on ebay right now for $85 that nobody is bidding on. No rotors on them.
 
Hmmm, guess it has more to do with demand than supply.

Still if someone did get the eBay hubs, they'd still have to buy rotors for them and those will be in the $150 range, give or take a few, to make them complete.
 
you could also post up tryin to trade hubs with someone. some people swap to drw hubs to use with h1 rims. its worth a try in the trade or wanted section
 
i took my dullie front hubs to a machine shop and had the outer flanges cut off and the tube part turned down
and the new inner flange trued up
then i drilled out the threads where the rotor bolted to the hub
and used new studs same as a single wheel front hub

it only cost me 30 bucks a hub to have them cut and turned down

it has worked sence last summer with no problems i have 2 more dullie front wheel dana 60s and i will be doing it to them soon
