Dana 60 rear from Dodge

[Hubnut]

Is this a good candidate for replacing my 10 bolt on my 1991 K5? I can get one for $75. Has 4.10 gears. Was wondering if this wheel bolt pattern would cause problems.

The 8 lug pattern is the same. 8x6.5

But it probably won't bolt right in. The spring pads will most likely need to be moved. And the shock mounts may have to be changed. I don't know if Dodge used one leading/one trailing shock.

If it were me, I'd hold out for a 14B. They bolt right in without any modifications.

Edit: I don't know if Dodge used 5/6 lug D60's or not. Either way the bolt pattern is differnt. It should be the same as a large Ford.

The spring pads on the dodge are 1" difference, people swap them in chevy's all the time, that 1" difference means you have to pull the springs on to the pad putting some side load on the bushings, but it seems it's not more than what you subject them to while wheeling
The bolt pattern should be the same if it's an 8 lug.
If 5 lug it's 5 on 5.5" and that is the jeep pattern.
I think the shocks are different but then most people relocate those anyway, it's an easy fix.
But if you are looking for straight bolt in, it's not.

Are the rears that close to Chevys? I know the fronts are 1" differnt, but the rears too?

Yep.

Dodge Dana 60s are 8x6.5. There were never any 5 or 6 lug Dana 60s for Dodge trucks.
